#015 Loneliness is an epidemic, but what does the research say about loneliness? What is actually working when it comes to heading off serious loneliness problems before they morph into larger issues, particularly amongst college-aged kids? Our guest today, Nathaan Demers, looks at connection from a research perspective and designs solutions based on evidence. Some of the highlights in today's episode include Nathaan's work with the social app Nod, what the loneliest living generation is, some of the stats and research Nathaan works with, and even tips for folks (like community-builders) who are on the front lines of facilitating connection. There's a ton of great info in this one — don't skip it! Show notes and more at SmartPassiveIncome.com/cx015
