Surgeon General Vivek Murthy writes about an epidemic of loneliness in our nation. He describes “collective loneliness” as the yearning for a network or community of people who share your sense of purpose and values.

There are two kinds of goals. First are what we might call “future” goals. While audacious future goals provide direction and motivation, my experience in coaching leaders towards holistic wellbeing suggests that ongoing goals, particularly those we might describe as small step practices or micro habits, deliver consistency, progress, and ultimately significant results. In The Art of WellBeing we emphasize the impact of practices and habits to shift a leader’s trajectory. We don’t look for quick solutions or 180-degree shifts.
