Don’t Be Strangers ✨☺️ is a podcast and social experiment for learning to create meaningful connections together via collaborative conversations! Statistics show that (1) social isolation is on the rise and (2) the number of close friends someone would say that they have is decreasing. Considering that having a strong social network is one of the key factor in general happiness, overall health, and prolonged longevity, my hope is that this podcast will serve to bring awareness to the issue as well as provide a platform to start solving the problem, together!

    From first impressions of Anna, I would describe her as someone with soothing but vitalizing energy. We bonded over…


    Our excitement to learn and try out different things
    How we got to where we are, her with her coaching business and me with DBS
    Being introverts and how we manage that
    Meditation
    Learning to take breaks 

    There’s a lot of gold in this episode, so I hope you take some notes!
