What Would Love Do?

What Would Love Do?

Author: Tracey Benson September 1, 2020 Duration: 14:24

This week, I’ve been inspired to ask myself the question, what would love do?


It’s an all-encompassing phrase that has given me the definitive push I’ve needed to start reframing my own perspective. Love comes in many forms, it’s present in our relationships with those closest to us, it’s attached to the passions we have for certain endeavors, and it’s even present in the feelings we have towards ourselves. Self-love is arguably the most important factor when it comes to this subject. 


In this episode, I’ll be diving into how we can use this question and the topic of love to find positive ways to meet our needs, what love means to me in a broader sense, as well as why the people who have hurt us throughout our lives can teach us the most important lessons and can even be a source of gratitude for us in the future.
