Loneliness: A Global Epidemic
Just over a year ago, I listened to an interview with US Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy about loneliness being as harmful to our health as smoking a dozen cigarettes daily. This analogy shook me to the core and got me reading more about social health and how increasingly disconnected we are as a society. In addition to Dr Murthy’s warning, more policy-level attention has been geared towards tackling loneliness, even in years before the COVID-19 pandemic, which we know exacerbated the situation even further. In the UK, for example, The Minister for Loneliness was appointed in 2018, followed by Japan in 2021. The World Health Organisation launched a commission on social connection in 2023, co-chaired by Dr Murthy.

How to Navigate Stress for High Business Performance
In 2023, the UK witnessed its highest sick leave rates in a decade (1). Seventy-six percent of professionals report experiencing moderate to high stress levels, marking a 13% increase from 2022 (2). Deloitte estimates the annual cost of poor mental health among employees to be between £42 billion and £45 billion. Presenteeism alone imposes a yearly cost of up to £29 billion on UK employers and now has more impact than physical absence on businesses’ bottom line (3).
The Paradox of Imposter Syndrome
