Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

37. Urgent versus Important
Q: What should you do if a loved one is dating someone potentially harmful, but not violently so?
Approach with curiosity and care, assess your level of intimacy and whether you are invited into the conversation, consider seeking elder guidance, and focus on affirming the loved one while expressing your hopes for their happiness and safety.
38. An Unreasonable Love (Go Knicks!)
Q: Is it wrong to have goals in relationships the way we have goals in other areas of life?
The hosts suggest that goal-setting can be healthy if reframed as intentions and ongoing practices that keep love present and vibrant, rather than fixed endpoints dependent on outcomes.
35. Love To Shake It Up
Q: What are our favorite forms of play that deepen and widen our loveship?
Play has looked different across seasons, from cards and video games to dancing, drumming, and even energetic line dancing; the core idea is to keep levity present, create space for experimentation, and use play as a vehicle for learning about each other and strengthening trust.
34. I Love Every Age Of You
Q: How do you view date nights and ritual within your relationship?
Date night for us is not a fixed ritual but a flexible, spacious practice that becomes a shared moment of presence and adventure, sometimes triggered by an invitation from one partner and sometimes spontaneously arising in everyday moments.
32. Love Through The Dark
Q: Would you share a story about a time when you composted part of yourself in service of who you were becoming in this loveship?
They discuss composting habits and boundaries as evolving acts of love, citing examples like giving up late-night work or unhealthy cravings to support mutual growth, and reframing personal needs as ongoing, sacred processes rather than fixed failures.
