Hey, it's Manou Shire with Valentine's Day this week.

Maybe you've got love on the brain.

And whether you're single, dating, married, divorced, or otherwise,

we all have people in our lives who matter to us.

But those relationships, they require work, a lot of work.

And so today, we're spending the hour with therapist Esther Parell

to explore how we can all create stronger bonds with partners, friends, family members,

even co-workers. This episode is called Building Resilient Relationships

and an originally aired in September.

This is the Ted Radio Hour.

Each week, groundbreaking Ted Talks.

Our job now is to dream big.

Deliver it at Ted Conferences.

To bring about the future we want to see.

Around the world.

To understand who we are.

From those talks, we bring you speakers and ideas that will surprise you.

You just don't know what you're going to find.

Challenge you.

We truly have to ask ourselves why is it noteworthy?

And even change you.

I literally feel like I'm in different forces.
