In Episode 5, Meg discusses intimacy through the lens of dating applications (dating apps). After Alexis (@rawrealfaces) and Meg (@linguistoflove) discussed intimacy and ended with a need to rethink "energy" and "intention" (Episode 3), Meg spends some time rethinking dating apps as a tool to finding love. She begins with a brief historical context that leads us to dating apps before exploring where dating apps fall short. She finishes with proposing that we have more options and to look inward first and learn of your own values and interests, exploring these facets of you by investing in activities and communities that you have been wanting to try but never started or put off. As she hypothesizes, "love could be anywhere."She announces The Self-Love Sanctuary is officially open and prepared for you. It is a space for you to learn more about you and journey within to explore and learn about yourself through self-reflective practices.
