February is here, and while the world gears up for Valentine’s Day, we’re keeping it real—because celebrating February 14th has never really been our thing. From elementary school Valentine’s cards with heart-shaped suckers to packed restaurants and overpriced chocolates, we’ve just never felt the pressure to join the hype. Well… except for that one unforgettable year when Kenny G came to town. Let’s just say a surprise concert, a big-screen love declaration, and a whole lot of jazz made for a Valentine’s “uncelebrated” we’ll never forget. Sometimes love shows up in unforgettable moments—but more often, it lives in the everyday ones.

In this episode, we dig into what really makes us feel loved when no one is watching. Is it grand gestures? Not really. It’s the random love notes, goofy Instagram messages, back scratches, foot rubs, and intentional check-ins after long days. We talk about staying emotionally connected in busy seasons, the importance of communication (even when one of you is an introvert married to an extrovert), and why presence matters more than presents. Whether you celebrate Valentine’s Day or not, this conversation is about choosing love daily—and remembering that the little things always add up.
