Love Is Not a Feeling: A Practical Way to Live and Lead with Kim Sorrelle

We say “love” constantly—but most of us were never taught what it actually is. In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, Kim Sorrelle reframes love as something you embody, not something you bargain for.

This conversation is for anyone who feels disappointed in relationships, confused by “mixed signals,” or exhausted by chasing validation. You’ll walk away with a grounded, freeing way to love—without losing yourself in expectations.
