How can we balance our digital lives with real-life relationships to support better health?

Not all connections are created equal. If your workplace is draining and your colleagues don’t fill your emotional cup, you’re better off focusing your energy on connecting with family and friends who truly nourish you.

Whether it stems from a relentless work schedule, emotional exhaustion, or simply feeling too overwhelmed to connect, isolation can silently erode your well-being.

Your environment (home, work, social) often plays a bigger role in your eating habits than you might think.

Stress management and burnout recovery are deeply personal journeys, but they’re rarely meant to be traveled alone. A strong support system—a “circle of wellness allies”—is one of the most powerful tools for health.

If you find yourself surrounded by people who don’t share your current goals or values it can feel isolating, but you’re not stuck.

Research now shows our environment and the people in it play a pivotal role in shaping who you are and significantly influences, motivates, and drives us.
