Self-love isn't inherently wrong... but I think we're missing the point of self-love. Yes, it's good to love yourself. You can't clearly break up with yourself so you gotta be ok with you.
Self-love is an ongoing journey. There's no end point where you say to yourself, Self, I love myself enough to start looking for a romantic/intimate relationship.. Along the way you'll meet people who will enhance/add to/complement your journey. You can have love for those people too.
In this episode, I break down how self-love has become synonymous with self-isolation, why things start to get sketchy when we think that the only love that's in our lives can be for ourselves and that love isn't what we think it is.
