Healthier Love: Taking a Look at How We Truly View Love

In this episode, Rella explores what it means to approach love from a healthier perspective—one that requires deep reflection on our thoughts, perceptions, and beliefs about love. We highlight one of our favorite episodes from On Purpose by Jay Shetty on manifesting love—not just about finding someone, but about who we are becoming in love. Have you ever reflected on whether you've inherited unhealthy beliefs about love—consciously or subconsciously? Are we truly showing up in love with honesty and vulnerability, or are we carrying learned behaviors that hold us back? 💬 We’d love to hear your thoughts!
