Embracing Unconditional Love | Valentina Tudose | TEDxTinHauWomen

Some say the most beautiful human emotion is unconditional love, yet most love stories come with conditions. ‘I’ll love you if you love me back, if you only choose me and me alone’. We all seek that deep connection that makes us feel special and unique, safe and totally accepted. But beyond this premise of exclusivity, is it possible in real life that we can choose to love unconditionally? In this talk, Valentina will challenge you to rethink how you approach relationships and love without expectations.

Valentina’s fascination with the mystery of love led her to become a relationship coach to help people redefine their romantic expectations and experience a different level of intimacy. With unconditional love and freedom as the foundation, her coaching evolved from working with people searching for a soul mate, to people who’d already found a partner.

The highest level of relationship is when you are sincere and don't hide your feelings, you're able to speak freely about your thoughts, what you experienced, what you really need and want - without the other taking it personally. I don't know many in a partnership like this.

Unconditional love isn't about waiting for the love to come back to you.... Really thought provoking stuff here. Good stuff too.

For love we can really do a lot of things: forgive, be patient, be flexible, change our views.

[natalyaguilerafigueroa]

Ego love vs Authentic love. Clearly this woman knows authentic love - I hope humanity can get to a point where we see each other's struggles, wants, needs, curiosities for what they are - a chance for growth through lessons. And the only way we can achieve this is understanding that these things are a part of being human and if we can support and help each other through these things, we come out the other side so much stronger and loving.

The entire foundation of love always get rocked, it depends how well you communicate along the way.

[craztinker]

I am lost in a day dream as I listen to her story... Imagining such genuine and authentic connections between people. I can only imagine how much more fulfilling our lives and relationships would be

[eric-tran]

Love is not about addiction and passion. It's about forgiving, giving your partner freedom and respect.

[chasesevern]

She seemed to have sincerely loved him.

[johnpederson]

What an eye opening journey she's been through. So many of us are quick to judge when we hear about people in open and understanding relationships but the way this lady puts it - the learning, the acceptance - sounds like one of the more human experiences of our days. Brilliant talk!

[charlieonno]

I am shocked by how many comments show that for a lot of people love is selfish. Great talk, I really understand your message

[janiceglanders]

I can imagine what you had to overcome. I read the comments, and some people say that it wasn’t love, you weren’t number one to each other, but they don’t see one thing. It’s so easy to love a person who has no problems, who is healthy and energetic. And it’s not that easy to stay with a person, who is fading, who can’t do some usual things without help, who needs your care 24/7. I know stories, when partners, who vowed to love each other unconditionally, just gave up quickly when problems appeared. That’s not real love.

[gerdefrederick]

The whole point of motherhood, she had me right there and I had to hear the rest.

[artcornish]

I once had a friend tell me that soul mates do not exist, instead, each love that we meet is a life lesson to help us grow. I'm not sure I believe in monogamy, as it seems to bring a lot of stress - but I do believe in following your heart. This was a lovely talk. It's unfortunate so many people are still closed minded to do being open and transparent about love.

[hamgifford]

The honest love going around in this talk is a breath of fresh air. Human's are a strange bunch but when we can come at connections with acceptance and understanding there is magic.

Listening to her story reminds me of one of the quotes I had read about love,
"And ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation" <3

[axelrespert]

I still see that a lot of people don't understand what you are talking about. They still think that if you love somebody you have only to look at this person and work out other-men-or-women-blindness. Life is more complicated and we are more complicated too - as you said, acceptance is key!

[erikashik]

Not only is Valentina a brilliant speaker, this perspective she has I believe is the way forward to ensure that we are teaching future generations how to live in harmony with one another. Unconditional love is how we ensure all voices are heard and we allow for healing

[zacksuchodolska]

You are so brave telling your story just as it is. Very sincere and honest. A simple life story that not everyone can share in the way that you have.

[EnjoyingLife]

"I wasn't looking for love, but it found me." Once you find the one, you must let them be free to be who and what they were meant to be. Let go of your ego and love unconditionally. 👍🌸❤️
