A Better Way to Do Valentine's Day

“Love month doesn’t have to be about pressure or performance.”In this episode of Humaning Well, Amber Cabral redefines love and intimacy beyond performative Valentine’s Day rituals. Instead of overpriced dinners and transactional gestures, Amber invites listeners to slow down, get intentional, and reconnect with what actually builds intimacy. Whether you are partnered, dating, or single, this episode offers practical, thoughtful, and sometimes spicy ways to deepen connection without pressure, perfection, or performance.Amber shares five intentional questions to reflect on or use while dating to better understand purpose, values, and emotional readiness: “Are you in your purpose?”“Do you like your job?”“How did you grow up?”“What does a relationship look like to you?”“What’s your relationship like with money?”She also explores why spicy conversations are not just about sex, but about honesty, safety, and embodied connection. As part of the February Love and Intimacy series, this episode is designed to give you tools you can use long after Valentine's Day. 🛍️ Shop Amber’s Be A Good Human merch:https://www.ambercabral.com/merch Amber’s substack | https://humaningwell.substack.com/www.humaningwellpodcast.com/Amber Cabral IG | @bamcabralLinkedIn | @ambercabralFacebook | @amber.cabralX | @BamCabral Bluesky | @bamcabral.bsky.socialWatch Amber’s TED TALK here.You can purchase Amber's books from the retailer of your choice here: https://www.ambercabral.com/books/Allies and Advocates: Creating an Inclusive and Equitable CultureSay More About That: ...And Other Ways to Speak Up, Push Back, and Advocate for Yourself and OthersHuman(ing) Well is produced by EPYC Media Network Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
