Fun is Fundamental

Do you ever wonder when did you get so serious? Do you miss the good old days? Do you lack fun in your life? About half of Americans say they don’t have enough fun. Join me on a mission to prioritize fun in our lives and why the lack of fun is detrimental to our well-being. This weekly podcast pivots between solo episodes and guest interviews. I, either, talk about a fun activity that I did or explore ideas around why fun can be so elusive. I hope to inspire you to explore ways to incorporate more fun in your life.

The Heart is a Lonely Hunter

No this episode isn't about Carson McCullers's debut novel, but it is about loneliness and isolation. As the world opens up and we start heartily socializing, I wanted to look at how loneliness is damaging to us and how maybe we can support ourselves and others during these struggles.
