Description

Dr. Edward Brodkin and therapist Ashley Pallathra are the leading experts on human connection. In this episode, they discuss their co-authored new book, Missing Each Other: How to Cultivate Meaningful Connections, which is based upon years of research and identifies "attunement" as a practice to create deeper levels of connection. 

They address: 

• the importance of "attunement" and how this practice can improve personal well-being and work teams. 
• four components of human connection: relaxed awareness, listening, understanding, and mutual responsiveness
• the balance between person-to-person interactions and machines/technology 
• the difficulty in accomplishing "attunement" via virtual engagement
