Before we jump into the new episode, my podcast now accepts incoming texts! If you have a thought to share about an episode, instead of waiting for a post here or sending me an email, you can just text me immediately.
There’s a link at the top of the description of each episode in your podcast player, and obviously works best from your phone. Click the link from your phone to open your texting app, don’t erase the pre-populated text, and just type out what you want to share.
This method does NOT show me your name only the last 4 digits of your phone number. So if you can include your name in the text, that would be super cool! Also don’t forget to mention what episode you’re referring to.
I can’t respond to messages directly, but I can read them during a future podcast so don’t be shy: share your thoughts.
Episode Description
What happens when you’re suddenly abandoned by your pack?
Loneliness is a universal human emotion that can often go unaddressed and underestimated in its impact. In a society where the focus is too often on productivity and success, acknowledging feelings of isolation and vulnerability can be perceived as a weakness. In this heartfelt episode, host and childfree Latina Paulette Erato shares her personal journey navigating the complicated emotions around loneliness in the wake of a health scare.
As she struggled with her health crisis, Paulette faced the harsh reality of toxic relationships that crumbled when faced with adversity. The loneliness she experienced was surprising, and painfully highlighted the stark contrast between surface-level connections and genuine support systems. Through tears and triumphs, Paulette learned the invaluable lesson of diversifying her communities to foster genuine connections.
Through vulnerability and introspection, Paulette sheds light on the challenges and growth that stemmed from these experiences, and why intentional community-building is essential.
