We’re not wired to be this disconnected.

In today’s episode, I sit down with Julia Hotz—award-winning
journalist and author of The Connection Cure—to explore why
modern medicine is missing a huge piece of the puzzle… and how we
can fix it without a single pill.

We dive into social prescribing—a science-backed practice
where doctors prescribe movement, nature, art, service, and human
connection instead of medication. Julia’s research proves what
we’ve known deep down all along: we don’t heal in isolation. We
heal through meaning, purpose, and community.

We discuss:

Why anxiety, ADHD and depression may be responses—not
disorders

The 5 powerful (and often overlooked) ingredients for lasting
health

How social prescribing is helping people heal without
medication

Why deep connection—not more productivity—is the real cure
for burnout

What the longest human study reveals about the key to a long
life

This conversation blew my mind and cracked open a new way of
thinking about health and purpose. If you’ve ever felt
overwhelmed, anxious, or like something’s missing—you’re not
broken. You’re just missing connection.

If you know someone who’s struggling with stress or
disconnection, send them this episode. It might just change
everything.
