About this episode
In this episode I sat down with Professional Coach, Peace Corps Volunteer, Entrepreneur, and Storyteller, Lisa Daron. Lisa has set off on a mission she calls "The Connection Cure" to see if she can heal herself from chronic illness by traveling across the country and forming meaningful moments of connection with people she meets along the way.
Topics we explore in this conversation include:
-Lisa's journey with chronic illness and how she came up with the idea for the Connection Cure
-What micro moments of connection are and the science behind them
-Practical ways Lisa deals with fear and doubt
-Lessons she learned about forming connection and relationships from her time as a peace corp volunteer
-And much more!
