In this Valentine’s Eve special episode of Love Notes, Allie Theiss reframes one of the most romantic days of the year — not as a performance, not as pressure — but as a conscious choice.

Episode 21 explores what it means to choose love intentionally rather than reactively. Through poetry, listener dedications, music rooted in emotional steadiness, a Desire Drop™ on clarity-driven attraction, and a Soulful Connections teaching on sacred union, this episode invites listeners to define love on their own terms.

Whether you’re partnered, single, newly dating, or decades into commitment, this episode is a reminder:

Real love isn’t seasonal.

It’s deliberate.

A deep Valentine’s Eve reflection on reclaiming love from pressure, comparison, and performance — and returning it to intentional choice.

From Rupi Kaur (Milk and Honey)

A powerful reminder that self-respect shapes romantic standards — and that attention is not the same as love.

1. From Chicago — choosing someone who already shows up
2. From North Carolina — 23 years later and still choosing each other
3. Anonymous — buying yourself flowers as an act of self-worth
4. From Miami — choosing presence over pursuit

1. This Must Be the Place (Naive Melody) – Talking Heads
2. Open Arms – Journey
3. Flowers – Miley Cyrus
4. Best Part – H.E.R. ft. Daniel Caesar

Each song supports themes of steadiness, devotion, self-worth, and ease in love.
