all right my loves happy tuesday welcome back to the show and welcome back to a week

0:10.7

dedicated to exactly that to love we are letting ourselves marinate and all things love in

0:19.6

this week leading up to Valentine's Day.

0:22.5

And today, I want to take a moment to really honor and identify in a very clear way the ways

0:32.7

that love is present in our lives right now. And this might sound like a really abstract thing or,

0:39.1
