The One Question That Turned Strangers Into Friends
Jun 15, 2026
Natalie Rizzo, MS, RD

A few months ago, I interviewed BrenĂ© Brown for TODAY.com, and one thing she said stuck with me: "Communication doesn't solve loneliness. Connection does." 

The very next day, I posted a simple question in a local moms Facebook group: Would anyone want to start a running group? What happened next surprised me. 

In this personal episode, I'm sharing how one small act of vulnerability led to new friendships, a stronger sense of community, and one of the best decisions I've made since becoming a parent.
