Summary

On this episode of Thick & Thin I discuss the loneliness epidemic; how and why the most connected humankind, in the realms of social media, can also be the most lonely. I talk about my own experiences (and internal battles) with loneliness and how I've learned to combat it - ultimately finding a home within myself and learning to give other people a chance. // Follow me on instagram: @katybellotte Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/thick-and-thin/donations Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Learn more about your ad choices.

0:19.2

First of all, I feel like I haven't properly welcomed October, my favorite month of the entire year by far.

0:26.4

And I feel like it's partially because it's my birthday month, but also because it's

0:30.6

Halloween, it's just like the kickoff of fall crunchy leaves

0:34.4

pumpkin spice like I am basic as it gets I just freaking love fall okay like I just I

0:40.9

love it this year for my birthday actually I feel like I'm getting off topic but whatever you know this is my podcast I make the rules my birthday is on the 27th of October. I'm turning 24 which is I feel like I deserve it you know like I feel like 23 I gave it my best shot

0:55.9

I'm ready for 24 and all the things that 24 brings on and whatnot but we're doing this extremely

1:02.3

different birthday idea because so myself, my friend Julia, and my friend Chichi, we all have birthdays in the same week.

1:09.6

So naturally we've decided, you know, as we've've gotten older that it makes sense to just

I mean you can try but so it's this one bar in a great part of town and basically it's like a very prohibition,

1:58.0

you know, 1920s looking like speakeasy type lounge space. Pretty we're inviting a ton of people so it's pretty big

2:06.0
