Social connection and its effects on our overall well-being is an area many of us neglect whilst juggling with a busy lifestyle. In this conversation, we reflect on the benefits of maintaining a strong support system and fostering relationships with others. We also touch on other aspects of loneliness, taking risks that lead to new experiences, and how we can build relationships based on vulnerability and empathy. 

Key topics we discussed:

• The importance of close relationships
• Quantum Entanglement
• Giving back, compassion and connection
