Regardless of where on that spectrum of hugging you may fall, the reality is that we all (for the most part, with arguably few exceptions) need some human contact. From missing your special someone to accepting hugs from strangers we cover the gamut of why hugs matter and how we can get more of them in our lives.

Walking The Walk is written, recorded and produced by me - Charissa McKay (aka CharCharBinx) in my awesome basement home office/studio/craft room on Treaty 6 lands known originally as amiskwaciy-wâskahikan, meaning Beaver Hill House, in Nehiyawewin (Cree). There are other names, equally as meaningful, and I am grateful to those who were here before me, for the ability to call this place my home.
