Why Your Story Matters & People Need to Hear It

We humans are built for connection. In fact, we require it. Among our most basic needs (right alongside food and shelter) is love, belonging, and connection. Even the most introverted among us require the intimacy of friendship and love to be our happiest selves.

But how do we tap into this connection? How do we find belonging when we feel separate from our fellow humans thanks, especially, to the physical and mental separation brought on by the pandemic? Turns out sharing your story, and listening to others’ stories, might hold the key. I know it does for me.
