Summary

What if the reason you feel stretched thin isn’t your workload—but your isolation? Many of us quietly believe we don’t have time for friendships, but the truth is we make time for what we value. And in the pursuit of productivity, relationships are often the first thing we sacrifice. Yet from the very beginning God declared: “it is not good for man to be alone.” We were never designed to do life or leadership on our own. In this episode, we’re confronting the hidden cost of isolation and why meaningful friendships might be the missing piece to a fuller, healthier, more impactful life.
