My guest in today's best of featured episode is a dear friend Susan Piver.

So Susan is a New York Times bestselling author of 9 or 10 books, a teacher, founder of

the largest virtual mindfulness meditation community in the world, the Open Heart project.

She's been featured on Oprah today, CNN.

She speaks around the world, leads teachings and retreats on Buddhism, meditation, relationships,

love, and the essential practices of a life well-lived.

She's also just a giant-hearted, big brain close friend.

Her most recent book, The Four Noble Truths of Love, is incredible.

And in it, she offers a powerful set of tools to reimagine and better navigate long-term

loving relationships in a way that respects each person's individual truth, while also

making space for living and evolving and really becoming who you need to be in the context

of this bigger relationship.

In this timely and timeless episode, Susan shares the eye-opening revelation that brought

her to the Four Noble Truths of Love, then walks us through each one of those four

truths and shows how to tap them to love more openly and forgivingly, dynamically, and

duringly.

Among the countless wisdom bombs she drops are the ideas that discomfort is not the problem,

thinking it should be comfortable is.

And also this idea that things actually never stabilize, and that's okay.

She's also created a really fabulous, additional PDF specifically about the Four Noble Truths

of Love around Valentine's Day for everybody, whether you're in a relationship, not in a

relationship, looking to figure out how to be and give and receive more love yourself.
