Episode 16: The comfort of convenience vs. the cost of connection
Update: 2025-05-28
Description
We’re more digitally linked than ever—yet so many of us feel alone. With smart assistants, AI-generated replies, and curated feeds shaping our interactions, it’s easy to mistake constant contact for true connection. But is efficiency eroding our empathy?
In this episode, Tom invites us to reflect on what authentic connection looks and feels like, and why it matters. He challenges listeners to embrace the beautifully messy, inconvenient reality of real relationships by trying three practical micro-experiments:
- Speaking instead of typing
- Responding with curiosity and intention
- Having at least one unfiltered conversation
Because in an age of artificial closeness, the most radical thing you can offer is your honest, human presence. Because the future may be digital, but connection is still analogue at heart.
