Alone Together

0

A life of solitude was imposed on millions of us during the pandemic due to the coronavirus. Being alone is a life chosen deliberately by some; others are just alone, not by choice. We can end up unexpectedly alone and for many, the twists and turns of life, brought us to where we are. Experts and researchers around the world share their insights about what we know about loneliness, we find meaning of it from songs, art, books, films, history and pop culture. We isolate the lessons of loneliness from people like you and people like me who have unique stories to tell and to share. Everyone feels lonely at times. But let’s begin to explore why. My name is Peg Fong, I’m a journalist and an educator who has been fascinated by what loneliness means. We’re not here to solve loneliness. But to add one voice to another so that we are alone together.

    Short and incredibly sweet
    This podcast provides insight and empathy in a time where we see that we need it most. The host explores loneliness and how we all cope with such empathy and understanding. And each episode is short enough to keep you engaged without becoming overwhelmed. Perfect for a walk or car ride! Peg featured our story of our daughter and Sapphire the fairy. She did so with such care and genuine nature. I will always remember it and feel so honored to have been included in this podcast series!

    What an insightful podcast!
    Loneliness is a challenging topic, especially during a pandemic. But what a thoughtful podcast to show how we all can help each other through kindness and compassion. We have more in common than we do in differences. And there is no shame in what and how we feel. Now, more than ever, we need connections. Bravo! Well done!!
