UNFLTRD THOUGHTS: Soulmates

Unswtnd+Unfltrd
About this episode

On this week’s “Unfltrd Thoughts", we talk about soulmates and whether or not we think they exist.

Life isn’t a Disney movie or romantic comedy starring Meg Ryan & Tom Hanks - unfortunately.  But does that mean soulmates are a thing of fiction?

The idea of finding your soulmate has become more of a cliche than anything else over the years, but the idea that there is someone out there made especially for you, is an idea we want to hang on to.

We also dive into the ayah “we created you in pairs”, and whether that applies to everyone.

Head to our Instagram page @unsweetenedandunfiltered and join the conversation. Do you think soulmates are the same thing as “naseeb”?
