In this episode, I'm joined by the fantastic Jennifer Breheny Wallace - award-winning journalist, researcher, and author of Mattering: The Secret to a Life of Deep Connection and Purpose.
We explore what it truly means to matter and how so many of us have been taught to seek validation instead of creating real connection. Jennifer shares powerful insights into why loneliness is rising, how hyper-independence is quietly disconnecting us, and what we can do to rebuild a sense of belonging and purpose in our lives.
If you've been craving deeper connection, more meaning, or a stronger sense of your place in the world, this conversation will feel grounding, reassuring, and incredibly relevant.
We talk about:
The difference between seeking validation and genuinely adding value to others
Why hyper-independence is leaving us lonely and what we actually need
How to apply "mattering" to add connection and purpose to your life
Where your real power lies when the world around you keeps changing
