Thank you, Resh! 2023 was a rough one, but I'm hoping 2024 is better. Gotta have that hope, after all. :)

Thank you, Nia, for addressing such a pivotal topic. Loneliness does seem to feel worse during the holiday season--or, rather, it does to me.

Thanks so much for reading, Julie! Loneliness genuinely does feel worse during the holiday season because we make such a big deal about spending it with loved ones, or announcing new life events (proposals, kids, anniversaries, big changes). Plus, it comes with an end-of-the-year despondency + winter chill. ://

Love that we both did loneliness issues this week—it affects so many people, and it's often unseen, and I think it's so important to talk about!
