On this special Valentine’s edition of Strategies for Living, Dr. David McMillian and Lauren Leon McMillian explore one timeless question: What is love, really?

Is love a feeling? A choice? A biological drive? A spiritual force?

From Plato’s “ladder of love” in The Symposium to Aristotle’s distinctions between philia, eros, and agape… from Jesus’ teaching to “love your neighbor as yourself” to the mystical poetry of Rumi and the compassion-centered teachings of Buddhism — this episode dives deep into the philosophy, psychology, and spirituality of love.

We unpack:

  • Romantic love vs. “real love”
  • Ego boundaries and conscious expansion
  • Love as luminous, omnipresent vital energy
  • Why self-love is foundational to loving others
  • Whether love is something we choose — or something that simply is

If you’ve ever wondered why love moves us, transforms us, and transcends time and space, this conversation will leave you thinking — and perhaps feeling — differently.

A perfect reflection for Valentine’s Day… or any day.
