Feeling Invisible: The Hidden Crisis of Loneliness in a Connected World
We’re more connected than ever — and yet, millions of people feel invisible.
In this episode of The Sageful Life, Maria opens up about the rising epidemic of loneliness, why it hits hardest after 50, and how even a room full of people can feel silent when your heart is unheard.
The U.S. Surgeon General calls loneliness a public health crisis — but this isn’t just about stats. It’s about that ache we carry when we don’t feel seen.
Listen in as we explore:
- Why so many feel disconnected in midlife and beyond
- How loneliness impacts our health, memory, and hope
- What you can do right now to feel more connected — and help someone else do the same
