How can I be so active as a Single Parent - and STILL FEEL Lonely? Exploring Friends This Holiday Season

In today's podcast, we discuss ways to overcome loneliness.  Tune in for trends in American friendship and also insights on how to overcome feeling lonely.  We hope this is meaningful especially during this holiday season.

 

Life as a single parent is FILLED with activity.  From children's appointments and schedules to our own, we hop from one place to another with work, school, errands, and more.   Still, many feel alone and lonely despite all the activity in their lives.

In fact, there has been a survey done revealing that there is an actual decline in close friendships across the US population, and that loneliness is a real concern for single parents, their children, and many others who are isolated in some fashion.

We walk through overcoming loneliness when we lose a lifemate, change jobs, or endure illness or anxiety of some kind.  In the end, we agree, that while there are many ways to be active, this does not replace authentic, two-way connection ... the time we invest in relationships is likely the most important thing we can do to ensure a long, healthy, and fulfilling life.
