Isolation, loneliness, depression - these words have become all too common lately. As we emerge from a global pandemic that upended life as we knew it, many of us are struggling to reconnect and find a sense of community. Personally, I too have felt the strain on relationships and a yearning for more meaningful social bonds. 

 

That's why I'm so excited for my latest podcast episode where I interview Florence Ann Romano, an expert on building social connections. She wrote the book "Build Your Village: A Guide to Finding Joy and Community in Every Stage of Life" – and she’s the perfect person to help us rebuild our villages!

 

In this interview, Florence Ann and I have a real heart-to-heart on why community matters, the different relationship "archetypes" people embody, and actionable tips to strengthen old ties or form new ones. She shares vulnerable stories from her own life that illustrate core concepts, bringing such warmth and compassion to the conversation. 

 

A few key insights that stuck out:

- Loneliness can be as damaging to health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Community is essential medicine.  

- We often focus selfishly on "what can others do for me" versus "how can I show up for them." Shift your mindset.

- Join groups and causes aligned to your values.

 

I walked away feeling hopeful and equipped to proactively nourish my relationships and connections. The timing of this message truly couldn't be better. I hope you'll tune into this soul-filling discussion with incredible wisdom from Florence Ann's journey. Get ready to start rebuilding your village!
