Loneliness is more than a passing emotion—it’s a silent epidemic with real consequences for your physical and mental health. In this episode, I go deep into my painful experience with loneliness and how I’m resolving it.
I share some science behind how loneliness is a silent killer and how deeply it impacts your immune system, cardiovascular system, cognitive resiliency and overall health. More importantly, I guide you through a reflective process to uncover the root causes of your loneliness—whether it’s social disconnection, emotional isolation, negative patterns or something else. You'll leave with practical, compassionate steps you can take TODAY to build more human connections and create a deeper sense of belonging, starting from within. You deserve to feel seen, heard, and connected.
