Welcome to Love Notes — your Friday night ritual in The Passion Zone. I’m Allie Theiss, your guide through poems, dedications, reflections, and sparks of intimacy.
I created Love Notes — both live and as a recorded podcast — because the world needs more love. Everywhere we turn, from the news to social media, we’re bombarded by chaos and heartbreak. This show is my way of shifting the energy — of creating space to invite love in, remember what it feels like, and remind each other that connection still matters.
Join me live every Friday night, 9–10 pm ET on TikTok @the.passion.zone
Please like, comment, and share the LOVE. 💖
We opened with i carry your heart with me by E.E. Cummings — a timeless reminder that love is both presence and belonging, carried with us wherever we go.
From Dani in Asheville to her partner
Song: Shut Up and Kiss Me – Mary Chapin Carpenter
One Day by David Nicholls — a story told one day each year for twenty years, capturing how love can be both constant and fleeting depending on timing.
From Heather in Portland to her husband
Song: Forever Like That – Ben Rector
Topic: Emotional Availability — the courage to be seen and honest about where you are emotionally. It’s not oversharing; it’s inviting your partner to meet you in truth.
From Julian in Boston
Song: Fields of Gold – Eva Cassidy
Love Actually (2003) — a film that celebrates every kind of love: romantic, familial, unspoken, and brave.
Appreciate out loud. Tell your partner one thing you love about who they are, not just what they do.
From Savannah in New Orleans to her partner
Song: Truly Madly Deeply – Savage Garden
Thank you for spending your Friday night with me. May the moments from Love Notes linger like the last notes of your favorite song.
