On this episode, we’re talking about a major public health crisis: loneliness. In September 2023, then-Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued an unprecedented advisory on the epidemic of loneliness and social isolation facing Americans and the health risks that can result. Why is this a worsening problem? How does loneliness damage our health? And what can we do about it? Keep listening for all this and more, and consider this episode a virtual hug from us to you.
