Investing in intentional human interactions is rare in today’s tech-fueled world. We distract ourselves with artificial connections--alcohol, drugs, casual sex, work, and even social media. During these days of isolation and quarantine, our distractions are few and our need for kinship is great. In this episode, Alex Rosenblatt and New York Times Best Selling Author and TEDx speaker, Joe Sweeney discuss the importance of being vulnerable enough to look outside ourselves and give to others, even in times of economic and individual hardship. More importantly, putting the needs of others above your own, can ultimately lead to successful business and personal relationships. 

“...when there's a time of crisis, where there's a time of economic instability, instead of going inward, it's counterintuitive because that's what we all want to do. We've got to get outside ourselves, be comfortable getting outside of our comfort zone and reach out to people.” --Joe Sweeney
