What gets in the way of seeing and speaking from your heart? What keeps you from saying what you need? Throughout our lifetimes, we're repeatedly confronted with solving the problem of how to overcome our loneliness. Going inward to solve the problem of feeling alone, we may find ourselves withdrawing from others, and giving up on cultivating deep connections. With the heart in mind, we can recalibrate our sight and see where a deeper connection lies.
I share from my experience of how seeing from the heart helped me reorient myself back to what matters. By the end of this episode you'll be thinking about all the ways you can share what makes you feel alive with others.

I reference the books:
The Art of Loving, by Erich Fromm.
The Tools, by Phil Stutz and Barry Michels.
