In a World Where We Are So Connected, Why Are We All Feeling Lonely? - Uncut with Dr Ali Walker

The World Health Organisation has declared loneliness as a global health priority.

Stats show that young people feel more lonely than any generation before but it seems as though we should be the most connected because of technology. So why are we all feeling lonely when we have a phone in our hand most hours of the day?

Joining the podcast today is Dr Ali Walker is a Human Connection Scientist & Mediator with a PhD in group dynamics and the author of click and clash. Ali previously joined the podcast in April for an episode called Is your name wi-fi cause I'm feeling a connection - Talking connection and compatibility with Dr Ali Walker.

We chat:

  • How we feel so lonely in a world where we've never been more connected through social media
  • How social media creates fake connection
  • Solitude v Loneliness
  • How introverts and extroverts experience loneliness differently
  • The long term effects of loneliness
  • How to 'fix' your loneliness
