Episode description

'How to Reconnect in a Disconnected World?' we ask ourselves in this new timeless episode.

Our guest is Johann Hari, the author of the New York Times bestseller: Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention, executive producer and Tedtalk speaker. His books have been translated into 40 languages, and been praised by a broad range of people including Noam Chomsky and Naomi Klein.

​I ​don't ​think ​it's ​a ​coincidence ​that ​grief ​and ​depression ​have ​the ​same ​symptoms. I ​think ​what ​depression ​is, ​in ​part ​is ​grief ​for ​your ​own ​needs ​not ​being ​met. - Johann Hari

Hari invites us to reconsider what it truly means to find ourselves, not as isolated beings, but as interconnected individuals whose happiness and healing emerge from shared experiences and mutual support.

This week’s timeless is from our archives, part of a beautiful and powerful conversation we had in episode 47 – Johann Hari on Depression, Addiction and Connection entitled Lost Connections: Finding Others Instead of Ourselves. You are so welcome to go and find this episode in the archives and listen in full.

We hope that this timeless offers you a new way of looking at your life and how you spend your time.
