new episodeeeee :) in this episode, i expand on the idea of healthy love being boring, and by extension, the idea that a healthy life is a humble and simple life. not one marked by extravagance or excellence. just one that is characterized by banal simplicities and the ability to be content with the the ordinary. i hope u enjoy my ramblings ! please share with me your thoughts on what healthy love and more importantly, what a healthy LIFE is :) TO LISTEN TO THE REST OF THE EPISODE, SUBSCRIBE TO ...
