It's the subject we all both yearn to obtain and dread to ask for: Real love. 

Join me and Isabel Criado as we invesitgate the differences between examples of authentic, healthy romantic connection presented in our show A Midsummer Night's Dream at Under St. Mark's Theatre in Manhatten, NY. Get tickets here! Not in New York City? That's totally fine! Watch it on the livestream on Saturday! Just click July 27th as your date and wham! You're set to remotely enjoy the show from the comfort of your couch, bed, replete with snacks, as you will.

In this episode, we ask the question: what is the difference between genuine care, affection and dotage and the skinny half-love hallmark to the phenomenon of limerance? We explore it all alongside some sneak previews of some of the most notable loving and unloving moments in the play, including how parental love can look different across the generations, and how self-love can anchor us into finding, keeping and continuing to appreciate that real authentic love we are all seeking. 

How can we fully and unconditionally practice loving ourselves so we can fully and unconditionally love another worthy of such care? Find out here with Saturday Night Shrinking!
