Ep. 171 How To Reduce Midlife Loneliness, Ease Stress, Anxiety & Increase Connection With Others This 4th July

Are you feeling lonely this 4th of July—even surrounded by others?
Modern self-awareness may be fueling your midlife loneliness more than you think.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

1. Why midlife loneliness is often rooted in disconnection, not solitude

2. How introspection tied to tradition once protected us from isolation

3. A new perspective that helps you reconnect with both your values and the people you love to foster a sense of belonging

Ready to reflect differently this holiday?
Join me for a timely look at how loneliness might be trying to teach us something—and how you can use it to build bridges, not walls.
