• Walk and Talk - The power of relationships

  From lifelong friendships to my own 30-year partnership, I know that relationships can be our greatest source of joy, and sometimes our biggest challenge.

I explore why social connection is one of the strongest predictors of wellbeing, the role of shared history and language, and simple ways we can build deeper bonds that stand the test of time - whether with a partner, friend, or family member!
