The topic of conversation this month on 1,000 Espressos is Connection. Humans are wired for it. Social connection is essential to our well-being. It can lower anxiety and depression, help us regulate our emotions, lead to higher self-esteem and empathy, and actually improve our immune systems. Little exchanges like the ones we have at the coffee shop or even socially distanced on the sidewalk actually nurture our sense of self and make us feel like we’re part of a community.

Though the pandemic is a shared experience all of us can relate to, some of our favorite modes of connection are changing. In our conversation this week with Katey Gordon Foster, we discuss finding the silver lining in this new connection paradigm.

Whether your drink is an espresso, a Cappuccino, a latté, a cortado, or even a decaf, pour yourself a double shot and join us.
