Loneliness is a systemic issue, and a huge problem in the United States (and probably around the world).
It’s hard making friends as an adult, and lots of folks are unsatisfied with their adult friendships. So what are we to do?
Jillian Richardson is the creator of
The Joy List NYC and the author of

What you’ll learn (or why you should care):
• How connection is the best way to heal trauma
• Skills required to crate connection and make new friends
• The importance of creating the spaces you want to see in the world
