Belonging

Written By Laine Carlsness

Christy and Kimi discuss belonging and why it matters. They touch on loneliness, connectedness, and what we can do to feel like we belong. In a heartbreaking and relatable text message, Christy reads a message her daughter sent that described feeling alone while eating lunch surrounded by people. They discuss how COVID has contributed to social isolation and loneliness, and how we can do our best to feel more connected. Also in the episode is a "failed name drop," scientific data on loneliness, and a reminder that Instagram ain't your friend when you're lonely. And more.


Today's episode is sponsored by All The Happier, a new online course inspired by the lessons you hear on the podcast.

I'm Laine Carlsness – the broad behind Broadsheet Design and an East Bay-based graphic designer specializing in identity, web and print. I truly love what I do – creating from-the-ground-up creative solutions that are as unique as the clients who inspire them. I draw very few boxes around what a graphic designer should and shouldn't do – I've been known to photograph, illustrate, write copy, paint and hand-letter to get the job done.
