In this heartfelt episode of Levelheaded Talk, Dr. Andrea Vitz and Jon Leon Guerrero tackle a surprisingly deep topic: the way we express love. Dr. Vitz opens up about how a simple 'love you' can feel like a casual greeting, losing its emotional impact over time. She argues that adding the 'I' back into 'I love you' can make a world of difference, turning a routine phrase into a meaningful declaration.
Jon shares his perspective, noting that while he doesn’t necessarily feel slighted by a 'love you', he understands the value of making expressions of love more deliberate and intentional. The episode dives into personal anecdotes and client stories, making it relatable for anyone who has ever questioned the sincerity behind those three little words. Dr. Vitz even suggests an experiment: try saying 'I love you' instead of 'love you' and observe how it changes your relationships.
Jon adds humour to the conversation, sharing moments from his own life where a more intentional 'I love you' made all the difference. They also touch on how society has shorthand for everything, even love, often reducing it to emojis and quick phrases. The duo encourages you to bring back 'real love' by taking a moment to fully express your feelings.
Whether it's grabbing your partner's face and saying 'I love you' or simply being more present in the moment, these small changes can lead to deeper connections. This episode is a must-listen if you're looking to enrich your relationships and bring more intention into your expressions of love. It's filled with light-hearted banter, practical advice, and genuine reflections that will leave you pondering your own habits. So why not give it a try?
Take a moment to say 'I love you' today and see how it feels.
