ML 002: You Don't Find Your Soulmate...You Build One

What if love is a skill you can practice, rather than something you're supposed to stumble into? Christina welcomes The Great Love Debate host Brian Howie for a candid, playful conversation about what it takes to create a relationship that lasts. They explore why being single can be a gift, how 90 days of no contact can bring clarity after a breakup, and why laughter, curiosity, and play matter in a partnership. Christina also challenges the idea that a soulmate is simply "out there" waiting to be found. Her take: the deepest kind of love is something two people choose to build together! *]:pointer-events-auto R6Vx5W_threadScrollVars scroll-mb-[calc(var(--scroll-root-safe-area-inset-bottom,0px)+var(--thread-response-height))] scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" dir="auto" data-turn-id= "request-WEB:f72137b8-a144-486c-b061-666fb5201cba-1" data-turn-id-container= "request-WEB:f72137b8-a144-486c-b061-666fb5201cba-1" data-testid= "conversation-turn-4" data-turn="assistant"> div:has([data-free-thinking-preview-answer=true])+:is(.text-message,.relative:has(>.text-message))]:-mt-2 grow"> Love is a skill you can practice. Christina encourages listeners to study relationships and put what they learn into action. Being single gives you room to choose well. Staying in the wrong relationship can cost more than taking time to find the right fit. A 90-day break can bring clarity. Time apart may help you tell the difference between missing a person and missing a familiar routine. Play matters. Laughter, curiosity, and shared fun can make a relationship feel more connected. You build a soulmate relationship. Christina's view is that lasting love grows through participation and effort, rather than fate alone.
