Let’s talk about something we all need but often overlook: Connection.
In this episode of The Happy Stack Podcast, I dive into why real, meaningful connection is essential—not just for growth and leadership, but for staying sane in a world that often celebrates isolation and hustle.
I’m sharing surprising research, stories from my own journey, and a few truths we all need to hear.
Whether you're leading a team, running your own business, or just feeling the weight of doing it all alone, this one's for you.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Isolation can be as harmful to your health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day
- It’s not remote work that’s the issue—it’s lack of intentional connection
- Curiosity turns surface-level chatter into meaningful conversation
- Great questions create stronger teams and deeper trust
- Real growth happens when we stop trying to go it alone
