Good news! Tracey’s back this week, y’all. Hooray! And our topic for today’s show is loneliness. Specifically: What is loneliness actually about?

Both Tracey and Cayly had challenging weeks last week. While Tracey was recovering from a medical procedure and Cayly was dealing with some emotional turmoil, they both found themselves struggling to reach out for help and finding themselves feeling extra lonely as a result.

In this conversation, Tracey and Cayly talk about why asking for help can be so hard, how self-reliance can go too far, and why letting people take care of you is essential for building trust and intimacy in relationships.

If you are someone who avoids asking for help from friends and intimate partners, this episode is for you.

As always, reviews and 5-star ratings in iTunes are greatly appreciated, so please consider leaving one if you are enjoying the show. Tracey and Cayly would be super grateful if you did!
