    40. Love To Let It Flow

    On this episode hosts Sangodare and Alexis discuss purpose as “love flowing into form,” how society and capitalist value stories can separate people from purpose, and how natural gifts often become last on the to-do list. They unpack over-prioritizing support for others at the expense of their own creative practice, the need to value our most precious connections to source and consent around purpose-to-purpose relationships while respecting boundaries under scarcity.

    39. Love To Offer Our Lives

    On this episode hosts Sangodare and Alexis introduce love as a collective superpower, arguing that love’s fullest power is not individual or confined to isolated couples or the nuclear family but lives on the scale of community and collective freedom. Drawing from Angela Davis’s autobiography, they highlight how her story centers collective support and love as forces that propelled her political commitment. They share 3 “North Stars” and call for social relations where all are loved and no one is sacrificed.

    38. An Unreasonable Love (Go Knicks!)
