"Why else live if not for Love?" - Valentine's Day Edition EPS

About this episode

This episode explores the theme of love in various aspects of life, inspired by a favorite musical and quote, especially in the context of Valentine's Day.

This episode is inspired by one of my favourite musicals and one of my favourite quotes: "Why else live if not for love?" With Valentine's Day around the corner, I've been reflecting a lot on love, especially how it shows up in friendships, creativity, and life overall. I talk about how past hurt can shape how we connect with people, why it can be easier to distance ourselves and how to let love expand in our lives.
