This week on Let's Talk Love, Robin sits down with author, Ruby Dhal, to talk about her newest book, "The Path to Self-Love." Ruby emphasizes that self-love is not just about indulging in feel-good activities, but also about taking care of oneself and addressing internal issues.

Ruby shares her personal journey of healing and self-discovery, highlighting the role of healthy relationships, boundary setting and having tough conversations. She challenges the misconception that healing is a linear process with a clear endpoint, emphasizing its ongoing nature and the need for continuous self-work.
