Hi, it’s Deb, In this episode of Spirited Straight Talk, Dana and I dive into a topic that touches every one of us - unconditional love. I’m talking about the real, raw kind of love that challenges us to heal… even when it hurts.

We talk about how ego sneaks into our relationships and how so many of us end up giving love with strings attached - without even realizing it. I share what I’ve learned over years of teaching and doing deep spiritual work: true unconditional love starts with being authentic to your soul… and letting others love you the only way they know how.

If you’ve ever felt like you give so much and get so little back, or if you’re healing from pain caused by someone you loved, this conversation is for you.

Let’s shift the story together. Let’s heal. Let’s grow.

Timestamps to help you find your moment:
3:08 – Why we’re all here to learn about love
7:14 - The difference between ego love and unconditional love
10:22 - Why we crave validation (and how to stop)
14:13 - Can you love someone who deeply hurt you?
17:48 - Are you loving without conditions, or keeping score?
19:27 - Why your healing begins with changing your story

 


 

In this episode, I talk about:
✅ Loving yourself even when others don’t know how
✅ How to break free from ego-driven expectations
✅ Healing from past wounds without needing validation
✅ Why your soul chose these challenges (yes, even that one)
✅ How to see others as souls—especially when they’ve hurt you

With love and truth,
Deb
