Justin Whitmel Earley on The Importance of Being Truly KNOWN by Our Friends
Loneliness is a universal struggle that lowers life expectancy, increases anxiety, and causes a profound longing for what we once had. It wreaks havoc on our physical and emotional well-being because it is the opposite of what we were made for. We were MADE FOR PEOPLE —we were made for relationships. Joining me for his second appearance on the show is author, Justin Whitmel Earley, here to discuss his latest book, Made for People: Why We Drift into Loneliness and How to Fight for a Life of Friendship. In today’s conversation, Justin sheds light on the transformative power of friendship and presents actionable practices for building a life of genuine connection.
