As we learn, heal and grow in courage the universe takes us to places we could only imagine when having our jokes filled off-line discussions. We chose to bring our listeners with us on this journey offirding us an opportunity to make visible our journey and hopefully inspire someone out there to make the decision and go for their dream. This stretched us out of our comfort zones as an introverted duo that is always recording in the privacy and comfort of our own homes respectively, we enjoyed every minute. Here's to many more opportunities that challange us to spaces that continue to contribute not only to our own healing but hopefully and God willing the world.

We can all agree that love is a beautiful thing when you learn how best to give to another and even to yourself as well as receive it. Without gently and patiently opening ourselves up to alternative ways of doing this love thing, and holding space for each other to eventually slowly embody these practices, it can easily become the leading cause for mental issues that can lead to dire consequences. What is love? How do you find it? How do you navigate it? How do you let it go? Who am I without a partner? These are a few of the questions that Jay Shetty helps us to find answers to through this much acclaimed book in recent times. This best seller aims to help you with your own definition of love and develop the skills to practice and enjoy love in all its forms daily.
