About this episode

Isolation and loneliness are often interchangeable, but is one more important than the other? My guest today, Dr. Julianne Holt-Lunstad, reveals that both are essential to our health and well-being and can increase the risk of premature mortality. But what happens when one is surrounded by others and still feels lonely? Or are isolated but don't feel lonely? Join us as we explore the complexities between psychological and social well-being and physical well-being. The answers may surprise you and leave you with more questions...

Julianne Holt-Lunstad Joins Me to Discuss How to Navigate Isolation, Loneliness, and its Impact on Health

In the podcast, Julianne Holt-Lunstad distinguishes between isolation and loneliness by emphasizing the distinction between objective physical separation and subjective emotional experiences. She points out that a person might be physically isolated but not feel lonely, or vice versa. Both conditions can significantly impact one's health, and understanding the difference can aid in developing effective strategies to alleviate their consequences.
