The Social Health Crisis We Don't Talk About Enough | With Allison Gilbert

from Celebrate Your Story

What if one of the most pressing challenges in modern life isn't money, power, or even technology, but our growing disconnection from one another? In this week's Celebrate Your Story, I speak with Allison Gilbert about loneliness, friendship, community, and the simple but powerful habits that help us stay connected in a world that too often pulls us apart. Drawing on her work with the late Dr. Ruth Westheimer, Allison shares hard-earned insights about loss, resilience, and why connection is not something we can leave to chance. We talk about the struggles many young people face as work and technology rapidly change, the special role grandparents and intergenerational relationships can play in shaping identity, and why "social health" deserves as much attention as physical and emotional well-being. This conversation is full of practical ideas and one question that may be worth asking more often: When will I see you again? If you've been feeling stretched thin, isolated, or a little out of rhythm with the people who matter most, I think this episode is for you.
