Episode 83

Julia is joined by Heidi Kane, PhD, - a psychology professor from UT Dallas whose research examines how social and cognitive processes shape interpersonal experiences and how these experiences then impact relationship dynamics and health. Together they discuss attachment theory and different styles of attachment, how we can improve our social skills, why marriage is so hard and different now from what it used to be in the past, the importance of community and social network diversity, the power of physical contact, and how the pandemic changed the way we connect with one another.
