The Impact of AI, Loneliness, and Finding Meaning Through Human Connection with Psychotherapist and Author John Tsilimparis
Description
In this episode I sit down with my friend, psychotherapist, and author John Tsilimparis to explore two of the biggest challenges shaping our world today: the rise of artificial intelligence and the quiet epidemic of loneliness.
We’re living in a time when we’re more connected than ever and yet more isolated than we’ve ever been. John and I talk about how technology, social media, and AI are reshaping the way we think, feel, and connect, and how they’re quietly impacting our mental health, relationships, and even the way we grieve. We discuss the heartbreaking story of a teen who took his life after forming an emotional bond with an AI chatbot and why open, honest conversations between parents and children are more important than ever.
But this episode isn’t just about what’s going wrong. It’s about finding hope, grounding, and genuine human connection in a digital world. John shares how structure, empathy, and real conversation can help us unplug from the noise, protect our peace, and heal through authentic relationships.
We also dive into his powerful book The Magic in the Tragic, exploring how grief doesn’t only stem from loss through death but also from life’s many transitions and heartbreaks. John reminds us that healing isn’t about moving on but moving through, allowing pain to transform into purpose and finding beauty, meaning, and even joy in the process.
