It\u2019s time to have a kind and honest conversation in this episode of #thelonelydiplomatpodcast about a topic that makes many of you \u2013 my lovely audience \u2013 feel uncomfortable: loneliness. \n\nLet\u2019s have this conversation together. Let\u2019s talk about how we can say that we don\u2019t feel lonely, but recognise how we need for more real, authentic connection in our lives. Can it really work this way? Is it that we just want the fix but not admit we have the condition? This is a real opportunity lost. \n\nI talk about the common responses I receive to when I admit that I have been lonely (and that I still feel lonely sometimes) and how we can all about connecting with others. Indeed, it seems that we rush to connect with others and the world around us but not spend time getting connected with ourselves. \n\nMake yourself a cup of something nice and settle in for a chat. You may indeed be lonely, but you\u2019re definitely not alone. \n\nLinks:\n\nBook: https://amzn.to/2q5kNJf \nWebsite: www.thelonelydiplomat.com \nBlog post \u2018The Lonely Diplomat: on loneliness\u2019: https://bit.ly/36tzZAx \nBlog post \u2018Loneliness and the lack of real connection\u2019: https://bit.ly/32iXlW9 \nCoaching and other services: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/services\nFriends of The Lonely Diplomat: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/friends \nPlease, support my work: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/support \nThe Lounge: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/thelounge\nStay connected with me and my work: www.thelonelydiplomat.com/subscribe \nContact me: admin@thelonelydiplomat.com
