Knowing Love by What It Is and What It Is Not | Carlos V. Spencer Speaks

How do you know what love really is, and how do you know when it isn’t? For many of us, love has been defined by feelings, emotions, or past experiences, but that often leaves us confused and misled.

In this solo episode of Carlos V. Spencer Speaks , Carlos breaks down how love can be understood in two powerful ways: by experiencing what love truly is and by learning from experiences where love was absent.

Drawing on real-life examples, personal reflection, and timeless principles, this conversation challenges the notion that love is merely a feeling and invites listeners to view it as rooted in patience, kindness, consistency, and choice. Carlos explores how a clear definition of love provides a point of reference, allowing you to recognize healthy love when it appears and discern unhealthy patterns when it doesn’t.

This episode is especially relevant for Black men and women navigating relationships, healing from past experiences, and seeking clarity on how love should feel, look, and function in their lives. Produced by Black Dad Unfiltered Media , this episode encourages intentional growth, emotional awareness, and deeper understanding in relationships of all kinds.
