Val Walker: Building Lasting Relationships

from Conversations with Joan Hosted by CYACYL

With today’s technology we are more connected than ever before and yet, it has been reported that social isolation is a growing epidemic in the United States. The number of Americans with no close friends has tripled since 1985, and more Americans are living alone, particularly people over 60. As it turns out, we can have hundreds of “friends” on social media without having any meaningful relationships. Val Walker talks about how we can break through our isolation and build community. Val is a rehabilitation consultant, contributing blogger for Psychology Today, and the author of 400 Friends and No One to Call. Music: www.purple-planet.com Show site: www.cyacyl.com
