Why Not Today? Podcast - Season 4, Episode 34: The Power of Community with Leslie Kane

In this solo episode, host Leslie Kane dives into one of her favorite topics, community, and why it’s more vital than ever in a world that often feels disconnected. Leslie shares research, personal stories, and practical ways to build real, lasting connections that support your courage and growth.

She explores how community shapes our health, happiness, and success, and reminds listeners that courage doesn’t always come from within—sometimes it’s borrowed from those around us.

Highlights:

• Why community is more than proximity—it’s belonging and being seen

• The impact of the loneliness epidemic and the research behind it

• How connection improves health, resilience, and happiness

• Stories from 9/11, COVID, and personal loss that reveal the power of showing up for one another

• How to create and nurture community through consistency, curiosity, generosity, and follow-up

• Why “community isn’t something we find—it’s something we build together”
