About this episode

The episode discusses the true nature of Valentine's Day, questioning whether it is genuinely about love or societal pressures.

Today we’re going to talk about Valentine’s Day. But don’t worry — this is not going to be a boring episode about chocolates, roses, and red hearts everywhere. Let me ask you something. Is Valentine’s Day really about love? Or is it about pressure? Pressure to buy a gift. Pressure to be romantic. Pressure to post something on Instagram. Pressure to prove that your relationship is perfect. Get the transcript on my website:
