Curiosity: The Love Language That Changes Everything
About This Episode
In this Sunny Side Up episode, Jessie May explores curiosity as one of the most underrated love languages of our time. In a world that feels fast, automated, and emotionally distant, curiosity becomes a radical act of presence, empathy, and care.
This conversation invites you to shift from judgment to wonder, and rediscover how asking better questions can change everything.
Through soulful reflection and science-backed insight, Jessie May unpacks how curiosity opens the nervous system, deepens trust, and creates the kind of connection that feels truly seen. This episode is a gentle reminder that love doesn’t always arrive as answers - sometimes it arrives as attention, listening, and the courage to stay open.
