Because We Love is an 82 page book that is made up of 46 people's answers (ranging from ages 3 to 85) to the question, "What does love mean to you?" supplemented with a short article about how love (oxytocin) impacts the human brain. I gathered the responses featured in this book via a Google Survey that I posted on my social media accounts. I was overwhelmed with responses from my online network and was interested to see how differently people in my life defined love. The inspiration for this publication came from a longing inside me to create something that would unite people during the chaotic and divisive year of 2020. Why create a publication like this? Because we [all] love.
