Valentine's Day often conjures images of heart-shaped candies and bouquets, but for my wife and I, it's a time to open up about the tapestry of our love story as well as the history of this day dedicated to romance. This episode journeys into the essence of relationships, starting with the Roman roots of Valentine's Day and how it evolved over time to celebrate love in its many forms. We go over the peculiar tradition of earmarking days for expressing love and delve into how early memories can tint our perceptions of such occasions. Happy Valentine's Day!
