Episode 29: Green Flags: A Musical Exploration of Healthy Relationships

We often look to music to explore and enhance our own life experiences and, for better or worse, “Love” dominates the airwaves. We are constantly inundated with lyrical messages about what love is, what it looks like, and how it feels. But how many of those messages are healthy, or even true? Love can be wonderful and fulfilling, but many of the catchy songs we find ourselves singing along to set the bar for relationships very low and are often downright toxic. If we absorb the narratives these songs spin, we may be misled into ignoring and potentially glorifying red flags. Today, we’re exploring the concept of love through music that tells a different story, one that lines the path ahead with green flags to guide our way.
