The Science of Love: What We’re Really Looking for in Connection

What is love really? In this episode, Stacy and Heather sit down with relationship scientist and licensed marriage and family therapist Marisa Cohen, PhD, LMFT, to explore the science behind how humans form emotional bonds. They break down love into its emotional and biological components, unpack common relationship patterns, and examine what people are truly seeking in meaningful connection. Together, they dive into why human connection is essential to our well-being, what defines a fulfilling relationship, and the common barriers that can get in the way of forming healthy attachments in romantic partnerships.
