Diana Curtis and Sharon Rolph | Rethink Your Relationship with Loneliness - Part I
In this episode, I have the pleasure of interviewing Sharon Rolph, an accomplished author, influential figure, and behavioral scientist. Our conversation centers around the pressing issues of loneliness, isolation, and feeling invisible, which have been recognized by the U.S. Surgeon General as a new public health epidemic in the United States.
Sharon openly shares her personal journey of grappling with the feeling of invisibility throughout her life. She attributes this struggle to childhood experiences of being ridiculed and bullied, which deeply affected her ability to trust others and form meaningful relationships. However, she also reveals how these experiences have granted her a sense of authenticity.
Moreover, Sharon delves into the intricate relationship between her religious faith and her pursuit to overcome feelings of invisibility. Despite enduring life's hardships, she managed to excel in academics and work. Sharon credits her mental strength and unwavering faith as the driving forces behind her ability to lead a purposeful life and assist others in discovering their own inner spark.
During our conversation, we explore the significance of mental fortitude, resilience, and a powerful technique for evoking warm memories as a means of overcoming challenging situations.
Ultimately, the objective of this podcast episode is to provide hope and encouragement to you if you are grappling with the profound feelings of loneliness, isolation, and grief and to inspire you to uncover your inner potential, discover meaning in your life, and forge connections with others.
Some Questions Diana asks Sharon:
- How did your experiences of grief shape your inclination to remain unseen? (10.24)
- How did your personal family struggles influence your ability to trust others and impact your relationships? (14.30)
- What enabled you to find the bravery to courageously disclose your own narrative and ignite a sense of connection among individuals facing similar hardships? (18.30)
