Ep. 34 The Truth About Love No One Talks About

In this episode of Sessions for the Soul, we’re asking a deceptively simple question: Who taught you how to love? Our ideas about love rarely appear out of nowhere. They’re shaped by childhood experiences, family dynamics, culture, and the relationships we witness growing up. But what happens when those early definitions of love were rooted in survival, control, sacrifice, or codependency rather than safety, freedom, and mutual growth? In this conversation we explore how our understanding of love evolves as we grow, heal, and become more self-aware. We unpack the difference between love as a feeling vs. love as an action, the patterns many of us unconsciously repeat in relationships, and why true love should allow room for expansion, individuality, and personal growth. We also dive into questions like: What is love really? Does unconditional love actually exist? Why do some relationships struggle when one partner starts to grow? How do childhood patterns shape our adult relationships? When is it healthy to stay and work through challenges—and when is it time to walk away? Whether you’re reflecting on romantic relationships, friendships, or family dynamics, this episode invites you to get curious about the beliefs you carry around love—and where they came from. Because sometimes the most powerful question isn’t who you love, but who taught you how to love in the first place. Want your question to be featured in a future episode?
