I felt all of this. Loneliness, or absence of community, became such an issue for my wife and me during the pandemic. We're only now realizing that visiting friends and family, while fulfilling, is short-lived. We need a more immediate sense of community.
I think this is why so many people miss college so much. It's not because of the keg parties and tailgates -- well, not just that -- it's because it's so damned hard to replicate such a close-knit community in adulthood.
I appreciate this episode. I'll definitely check out Aimée's book.
Didn't realize how badly I needed to her that quote about how you don't have to believe in yourself to finish a project. Maybe I'll actually finish my script now :)
