About this episode

The Art of Detachment: Loving Without Chains

Have you ever noticed how we can deeply love a vacation or an experience, but we don't feel the need to own it? Yet, when it comes to loving people, we often fall into the trap of possession, clinging tightly and fearing the inevitable changes life brings. Today, we'll explore how shifting our perspective on love can lead to greater happiness and fulfillment.
