Being Alone Is Not the Same as Being Abandoned

About this episode

Being alone can feel like abandonment, especially when you're used to having someone there.

But being alone and being disconnected aren't the same thing. You can spend time by yourself and still be deeply connected to the people who matter to you. Likewise, you can be surrounded by people and still feel completely alone.

This episode explores why solitude can sometimes feel threatening, why we mistake distance for rejection, and how to become more comfortable with your own company.

Being alone doesn't automatically mean someone left you.

Sometimes, it simply means you're with yourself.
