What’s your relationship to time?    Are you often running late, caught in traffic, cursing yourself or the situation for making you late?   Do you embrace your ‘differentness’ or compare yourself to others successes of business or beauty that you see while scrolling your screen?   Do you feel like if you just did more or did it faster, all that you want could be yours and would stop eluding you…if only you had more Hustle…   But what if Hustle isn’t the answer, it’s actually the deterrent because you’re looking in the wrong place.   What if the answer had been with you the whole time and it was so obvious you didn’t even think to look there.   What if the answer was so simple and basic that it couldn’t be that. It had to be finding more money, more time for what you want to do, and of course, the right timing…more, more more.   What if I told you that what you’re hustling for is actually already a part of you.   In this week’s podcast we’re going deeper so you can free yourself from the hustle; so you can live with more peace of mind, so you can live more powerfully, and so you can live in more prosperity in your life.   Join me this week for this replay episode of Truth & Dare to:   Discover the real way to have all the desires and needs of your life met without hustle.

Have you ever felt that sense of being in complete flow - in your body and in your creativity?   You felt connected.   You felt aligned with your soul’s inner radiance.   Do you remember a time when you were little and you got so lost in something creative and wonderful that time was non existent?   You were authentically real and you in those moments and there were no barriers or masks covering up who you are.   You were immersed in the magic - the flow of life.   It felt pure. You were free.   Then as you got older, life got complicated by experiences, patterns & stories then took form in your mind and body.   They influenced how you made decisions, how you judged your life a success or not, how you interacted in relationships with others and with yourself.   These patterns and stories changed who you were.   But not really. They were only a mask that you wore. Maybe several masks covering up who you really are.   Maybe you realized you could take off the masks and choose to be who you truly are.   Maybe you’re still shedding some of those masks.   Maybe you don’t even recognize some of these masks you’re wearing because it’s too hard to see.   What would it feel like to be free from these masks and live the magic again and flow with life like that time you remember when you were younger?  Maybe even more free and wise.  What would that feel like?   In this week’s episode: What causes us to put on masks and cover up who we really are How to take off the masks covering the real you and live from love not fear How to face anything, even what you’re most afraid of, and set yourself free to live in flow Getting curious about a new rhythm in your life and how to make changes step by step with more compassion for yourself and others   Resources: Come join me over on Instagram Schedule a call today Awareness collective waiting list Join the Sacred Lifestyle Collection here    

On some days does it feel like you’re pushing your way through?  You’re feeling the weight of change because each day there is something new to deal with and you’re just wanting your life back.   I completely understand because we’re all sheltering in place. And we’re all experiencing this on a global level while creating a new rhythm. You’re not going to yoga classes, attending workshops or retreats, and your life feels like ground hog day and a time warp combined. Everything has been turned upside down.   On top of things you already take care of, you’re busier in some ways than you were before the shelter in place. You might be home schooling your kids, you’re together all the time, or you’re working remotely and on more zoom meetings than ever before -  it’s hard to find the ‘me space’ just for you. You’re doing a lot and it’s overwhelming many days.   It’s hard not knowing about your job or business.   It’s hard not knowing if your child will go back to school.   It’s hard not knowing what’s true.   It’s hard not knowing what’s ahead in your life.   Everything you’ve known will be different moving forward. I believe this is a good thing because our earth needs us to shift. And this shift within us will first come from inside. You make a difference and it’s the deep inner work that you’re doing that will not only transform your life but also our collective community and how we come together moving forward.  Your strong heart and truth is needed more than ever in this world right now.   You get to invite and allow a fresh perspective. You get to enjoy new practices to spark curiosity plus a new clear opening to your heart. This leads to you gaining more clarity and creativity as you continue to shift with courage, confidence, and resilience in these changing times.   How does this fresh perspective happen - through daily spiritual practices with guidance. We’ll explore more in this week’s episode and I’ll guide you through a meditation I recorded specifically for you. Let’s move forward together in this process of knowing the balance of allowing and pushing so moving into this new rhythm you feel grounded and ready to allow the next steps in your life.   In this week’s episode:   What it means to bring your attention to the NOW - Atta in Sanskrit I’ll guide you through the Illumination of the Heart meditation to open your heart to listening to a fresh perspective in moving forward in your life How to find balance of allowing and pushing How you can source guidance moving forward diving into your inner work   Resources: I invite you to check out The Sacred Lifestyle Collection for resources and guidance as you move forward creating the new rhythm in the next phase of your life.

What does ‘wellbeing’ mean to you?   What are you committed to ‘BEing’ in your life?   Do you get sidetracked by circumstances?   What are possible ways you sabotage your ‘wellbeing’?   Another month in shelter in place and the self inquiry continues. How do you want to move forward?   Are you asking yourself these questions or has fear or lethargy taken over and you’re done?   In this week’s episode, we’ll talk about: What is ‘wellbeing’ & how do you define it for your life What do you love that makes you feel happy? Design your wellBEing plan with these 5 facets - they’re not what you think they might be How will you move forward once shelter in place is over     Resources:Definitely check out the documentary Happy - here’s the trailer to take a look:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vZ1LutLRRY Are you ready to work with me, here are ways to connect: Peace Seekers Schedule a call Awareness Collective waitlist Candlelit Yin Yoga Follow me on IG @camdenhoch and Facebook

You are on the path…exactly where you are meant to be right now…and from here you can only go forward, shaping your life story into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing, of courage, of beauty, of wisdom, of power, of dignity, and of love.” Caroline Adams   Please also follow and check out my friend Peter Kater and his music - truly Divine and you will love!  https://peterkater.com Be sure to follow him on FB for his FB lives where he will play the piano and visit as well.

Whether you’ve been home in ‘shelter in place’ for a couple of weeks or a couple of days, I imagine you’re feeling moments of complete overwhelm and struggling to find peace as you try to manage yourself, your family, the meals, the laundry and all that you have on your plate.   You’re seeking peace.

As my guest and I started our conversation on this week’s episode, I start with the leading question:   “If we were meeting your 5 year ago self, who would we be talking to?”   My guest, Penny Chiasson, award winning professional hypnotist, international bestselling author, and entrepreneur got pulled out of her comfort zone in a major way 5 years ago and the trajectory of her life and what she thought was going to be completely changed.   Sound familiar? We are all being pulled into our ‘uncomfortable zones’ right now and there’s a myriad of emotions rising in everyone.   How can you ground during these uncertain times?   How do you find peace in the chaos when you don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow?   What’s been your ‘go to’ practice for inner guidance and could it be that you’re ready for a new tool in your ‘inner work toolbox’ ?   What if you had the choice to not just get through this uncertain time but to actually feel more peace and freedom as you take each day as it comes?   Join me and Penny for this episode of Truth & Dare to:   Hear Penny’s story of nurse and nurse anesthetist to award winning hypnotist assisting entrepreneurs & leaders in shifting subconscious beliefs that block their success.

What do you fear?   Let’s get right to it - shall we. Is it not having enough food, water, toilet paper, dying?    What is your biggest fear right now?   Does fear drive you?   Did you ever see an old movie where one of the perfectly  normal characters was freaking out having an “out of body” experience where they were running around jibber jabbering and not making sense. The someone slapped them across the face and said “get ahold of yourself, you’ll do yourself and nobody else any good in this state.”   What is the ‘slap in the face’ that it will take to get the herd to wake up.   Yes, there are sick people. There have been sick people with plague, flu and more in the past. We made it through. Some people pass and some didn’t. We are all going to pass, to transition, to die at some point.   Here is a quote from the CDC re the flu in 2017-2018.   “In recent years, flu-related deaths have ranged from about 12,000 to — in the worst year — 56,000, according to the CDC. Last fall and winter, the U.S. went through one of the most severe flu seasons in recent memory. It was driven by a kind of flu that tends to put more people in the hospital and cause more deaths, particularly among young children and the elderly…..CDC officials called the 80,000 figure preliminary, and it may be slightly revised. But they said it is not expected to go down.”  (https://www.statnews.com/2018/09/26/cdc-us-flu-deaths-winter/)   Why the huge freak out now? Are we not better equipped mentally and technology wise to work in a wiser way for a proper test, vaccine, and treatment of COVID-19? Does it help or hinder finding a solution?   I am not a conspiracy theorist but there is something odd here and that we are in an election year and maybe there could be something going on. Whether there is or isn’t, let us all recognize what we can control and what we can’t.   How can we come together in a crisis more efficiently caring for all beings? Not by pricing Purell at $50 for 8 oz. or more.   How can we be more kind, compassionate, and understanding in this time?   I believe there is good within everything because there is God in everyone and everything. So where is the good here?   Let’s dive into this week’s episode of Truth & Dare together to:   Awaken a new conversation around our personal health and wellbeing Discern whether the sky really is falling and see what happened to Henny Penny Connect more deeply to your inner wisdom and knowing of how to best care for yourself in a world of sensationalistic news How you can reach out and be a part of a community to journey with other women in expanding who they are, what they want, and finally living aligned with your purpose How to embrace a new awareness of caring for yourself, your family, and in turn how that affects your community and beyond       Resources: If this episode spoke to you about your own journey and inner work process and you’re curious about my women’s group coaching sanctuary membership, Awareness Collective, click here to get on the waiting list as doors are opening at the end of March.   We only open twice a year and this is a beautiful process of coming together to experience your life expansion in your next phase of you who you are.   You can also come meet me now in my free women’s fb sanctuary, Peace Seekers & Space Expanders where you can re-inspire your daily life and passion and connect with other heart centered soulful women on this journey.

I love the phrase “DO I HAVE TO?”  Did you ever say that as a kid?  You know when your mom asked you to clean your room or take out the garbage, did you ever say - “DO I HAVE TO?”   Like -  it wasn’t really a question - you just thought you could get out of it somehow. There’s nothing wrong with asking, right? And yet, you knew deep inside before you even asked - “I’m going to do it.”  You had that awareness.   That’s kind of how it is with inner work. It’s the only way to know who you are and what you want. If you’re living “outside in”, you’ve been doing it backwards.   This week’s episode is on fire with inspiration and insights!   Join me for this episode of Truth & Dare to: Discover an incredible documentary about inner work that is a must watch Why you MUST HAVE a COMMUNITY of support & encouragement to flourish in your own life Learn 3 ways to live from the ‘inside out’ instead of the ‘outside in’ How to shine awareness on who you are, what you want, and how to create and an opportunity to learn more about how to enjoy your inner work in my women’s group coaching sanctuary, Awareness Collective.

“How do I stop negative energy from invading my space?”   “What do I do when certain people in my life are so negative and I just can’t take it anymore?”   As a master life coach & empowerment specialist, these are common questions I get when I start working with clients who are ready to expand and create the life they want taking a heart centered approach.   We all know that you cannot change anyone or make them do anything - meaning that you can’t “go driver on someone else’s life path.” You can’t magically wave your wand and turn a negative person into an optimistic person.   Here’s what you can do - take a look at how you’re managing your energy.   I know, you might be thinking “But Camden I’m doing all the right things and they are still blah blah blah….”  Again, you can’t change another person.    You can only manage your energy and take a look at how your energy is being affected by the choices you are making in your life.   Life truly is about connection, growth, expansion, compassion, kindness, truth, love, and empathy.  How do you discern your life choices from a heart a centered approach? That’s what this week’s Truth & Dare episode is all about. How do you deal with a negative person in your home, your office, your life?    Join me this week for this episode of Truth & Dare to: Explore the meaning of energy management from a yogic philosophy - Brahmacarya Get honest with yourself about how your energy is being affected by your life choices and how you can change it Go through an effective exercise to determine what is really draining your energy Learn 3 simple check in tools to see where you might be leaking your energy and how that is exhausting your true power Resources: An invitation to join me in my free FB online women’s sanctuary.

What’s your relationship to time?    Are you often running late, caught in traffic, cursing yourself or the situation for making you late?   Do you embrace your ‘differentness’ or compare yourself to others successes of business or beauty that you see while scrolling your screen?   Do you feel like if you just did more or did it faster, all that you want could be yours and would stop eluding you…if only you had more Hustle…   But what if Hustle isn’t the answer, it’s actually the deterrent because you’re looking in the wrong place.   What if the answer had been with you the whole time and it was so obvious you didn’t even think to look there.   What if the answer was so simple and basic that it couldn’t be that. It had to be finding more money, more time for what you want to do, and of course, the right timing…more, more more.   What if I told you that what you’re hustling for is actually already a part of you.   In this week’s podcast we’re going deeper so you can free yourself from the hustle; so you can live with more peace of mind, so you can live more powerfully, and so you can live in more prosperity in your life.   Join me this week for this episode of Truth & Dare to:   Discover the real way to have all the desires and needs of your life met without hustle.

Do You Take Risks?   Can you remember the last time you took a risk?   Do you find that you take the more known route rather than take a risk?   In this episode, we’re breaking down Risk with a Purpose plus I’m going to share my technique for Vision Board. It’s all about wonder and curiosity while coming from what you’re feeling not what you feel is lacking or what you want that you don’t have.   Plus, I want to help you get clear. What is something you want clarity on in your life right now? This is something I’m really good at.   I have been a certified trained life coach for over 10 years now.  I was coaching before that but it was something that simply came natural to me so in 2009 I decided to take a risk and go for it to serve others on their path.   As a life coach, yoga instructor, and mom, my intuitive purpose is all about helping, connecting, and teaching. I love helping my truth seeker women discover and lead their feminine leadership path from their intuitive purpose so they have more joy ease, prosperity, and wonder space in their lives. I love being on the spiritual adventure journey with them and I’ve also worked with men who want to connect more deeply to their intuition as well. Did I tell you I love my life and this is what I get to do each day. Really?!  Yes!   Click here to sign up for a free call with me. Let’s talk and see your next steps to getting clear on what you want and how to have that in your life.  Simply click and we’ll have a free call together. I really look forward to meeting you!

It seems simple, like a no brainer, right - of course, you inhale - how else would you be alive?   But are you really ALIVE?   Is your body fully getting the nutrients it need through your breath?    Is your nervous system off the charts wigged out because of stress and shallow breathing?   Do you feel fully alive, in your body, and conscious of every breath?   How does breathing make a difference in how alive you feel?   Join me this week for this episode of Truth & Dare to explore your inhale.  In episode 45, we explored your exhale in “Do You Exhale” and the comments came rolling in. Ellen shared that she realized she’s been holding her breath for years. She’s a mom and has had some challenging issues in the past with health. Challenges can keep you on edge and your body in a stressful state. This can be a source of erratic breathing for not only the exhale but also the inhale.   That’s why I wanted to give ample time to your inhale too.

What if you could wake up tomorrow to a new life, what would you change?   Would you want to make more money, loose weight, be in a love, write a book, or…..   Is there something that has stopped you from doing it already?   In this week’s episode, my guest Scott Schmaren, shares the day that started a brand new life for him. After taking pills to kill himself and settling into his chair for what he thought was the end, to his surprise he woke up the next morning. He wondered if he was actually dead and the light was calling him but then he realized it was the next day and what happened from that moment, has changed his life and many others.

Have you heard of Sober October or Dry January?   Have you participated in either or thought about it? If you did, what shifts did you notice within you or in your life?   So I get right to it - I’m not a surface person as you may guess and I like those questions that create a bigger conversation about what matters to you and how our choices have a collective affect.   Those questions like - What do you want to be and what do you want to create in your life AND are you on track with this and your values? What ripple do your choices contribute to in the world? OR is there something you see may be stopping you from living a fulfilling life? Could it be that you’ve thought about being alcohol free but something has been holding you back.   My guest on this week’s episode has had her own experience with alcohol and is a leading contributor to the alcohol free movement. Karolina Rzadkowolska is the founder of Euphoric Alcohol-Free, a space to discover your best life away from alcohol grounded in happiness, choice, and individuality—the very things she needed to make the best decision of her life. She had a love/hate relationship with alcohol, that made her feel small, stuck, and like she wasn't living up to her fullest potential. She shared that drinking made her feel low, lethargic, and crumbled her self-esteem. Even though it brought her negative feelings, she was still torn. “Wouldn’t quitting mark me as an alcoholic? Was I the only one who experienced alcohol this way? Why does no one talk about it?”, were some questions she was conflicted with inside.   If you’re curious right now and thinking about some of these same questions, join us for a look inside either for yourself or someone you know.   In this week’s episode, you’ll:   Learn what Sober Curiosity is and do you have it Discover the MindBar space and what happens there See inside what life can look and feel like from Karolina’s perspective when you go alcohol free How many Americans really want to drink less & why Get a first step you can take if you’re ready to give AF a go   Resources: You can connect with Karolina here and learn more about Euphoric AF, her coaching, free programs, mocktails, and more:    Webpage (blog, coaching, podcast, mocktails) https://www.euphoricaf.com/     Connect with me on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/euphoric.af/

Have you ever thought about how much energy it takes away from you trying to control something you have no control over?   How would your day to day feel different if you could  recognize when your rhythm is interrupted and how to easily find a new rhythm or center?   What would it look and feel like to focus on the possibility that a new rhythm brings to your life rather than focus on trying to avoid the inevitable change it brings?   Given the recent power outage in California and the  various reactions I’ve been seeing and experiencing, I thought this would be perfect to talk about on this week’s show.   Sometimes we invite a change in rhythm like with travel, changing jobs, getting married and a myriad of others and other times (many!), these changes are unexpected.   In this episode’s conversation we’ll break down?   The 3 messages that led Bowen to change everything in his life How physical activity can awaken your creative spark of intuition What can interrupt your rhythm Why & how to align to a new rhythm Where fear plays a part A prayer to support your clarity in any rhythm Movie suggestions for a deeper dive into the topic of the rhythms of life and how they can encourage a bigger conversation on the evolution/expansion of humanity    

In this week’s episode, you’re going to love the guided meditation so be sure to carve out some space for yourself to sit in a quiet space and breathe. Don’t worry if you’ve never done this before because you may be surprised about the experience (in a good way).   We’re going to explore a question together and this question is super critical to every single aspect of your life - your business, relationships, parenting, and complete well being - How do you calm and quiet your mind?   In this episode, we’ll explore: Is meditation supposed to be quiet? Am I doing it wrong if I can’t stop my mind from thinking? Why do I need quiet? I’ll guide you through a meditation during this episode too :)

Change Everything with Bowen Dwelle Was there a time or situation in your life where you knew you were ready for a change? How did you know?  Was it your creative spark of intuition that spoke to you in some way and you decided to go for it? Or was it a forced change you didn’t see coming? Now that you’re through it, can you look back and see the signs it was coming but something was blocking your sight at the time? This week’s guest on the show, Bowen Dwelle, is an athlete, writer, speaker, and coach. He’s been through  changes, MAJOR CHANGES, and shares candidly with us the 3 messages he got through intuition the day he signed on the dotted line when he sold his company.  Bowen began his third career by dedicating himself to the unfolding of these 3 messages in his life. He is in his evolution as an athlete, adventure guide, paraglider pilot, and Creative-in-Residence at the Battery in San Francisco, and to his current vocation as a writer and coach.

You either love it or hate it - Change - how do you embrace or resist change in your life?   Change is the act or instance of making or becoming different.    In the states, kids are going back to school; summer is ending; and a new season is coming with all of its changes.   Change isn’t something you can resist or stop. It is the biggest constant in your life.   So why is it so hard in some cases to simply accept change?   What are we afraid of?    Is it your need to control or know what’s going to happen?   Is it the fear that something ‘bad’ is going to happen?   Do you believe that change can be exciting?   Do you welcome change?     This week’s show is all about change, transformation, and alchemy and ways to ease into them with more peace and awareness of each moment.   In today’s episode, you’ll learn:   4 ways to ease into change with more peace & awareness The mandala of your life is what you are experiencing & is your place of awakening Similarities and differences of change, transformation, and alchemy How to sit with change   Resources:   If you’re seeing you want some help with changes in your life and/or business strategy, I would be happy to see how I could help you.

Have you ever noticed that your pets find you just when you need them?  You’re going through something, or you weren’t even looking for a new pet, or you were and the perfect new furry family member shows up - coincidence? - no way - they sensed you needed them.   Did you know that 68% of US households have a pet?   I was brought up around pets starting from the womb. When I was born and fresh home from the hospital, my mom put me on the floor with her poodle, Beau, so he could sniff me, get to know me, and welcome me - although I’m sure if he’s like my dogs now, it took a while for him to welcome this odd looking little stranger to the family.   Our pets or as we call them, our furry children, are part of the family. Their individuality, their compassion, understanding, and unconditional love fill the spaces in our hearts and home with such joy, silliness, and protection.   Recently, we said farewell to our mini gray/tan/black dapple dachshund Pete, who was 13 years old. Boy was he an alpha male. He had the best doorbell bark, he said “I love you” in slow drawl barks to me and he loved us.   We miss him so much and it’s left an empty space in our family. Our other pets were with us when we said goodbye. We are all adjusting.   This week’s show is a tribute to Pete and a conversation about how dogs are so present to showing up for their humans.   In today’s episode, you’ll learn:   More about Pete and why he was so special to us and an incredible dog that was so wise The benefits of having a pet join your family and what you could be missing by not having a pet Research on pets and why they can bring more mindfulness to how you live your life A healing mindful technique to acknowledge fear, loss, and grief instead of avoiding or compartmentalizing it How living with your pet can hone your listening skills and help you enjoy more fulfilling relationships   Resources: To learn more about the benefits of loving a pet, click here: https://newsinhealth.nih.gov/2018/02/power-pets   For the farewell poems I read, click here: https://www.sympathymessageideas.com/pet-loss-poems/        

Do you remember learning to walk?   Have you watched a baby learn to walk?   Have you walked mindfully paying attention to how your foot hits the ground, what you see around you, and how you engage with the world around you?   Have you ever had a conversation with someone and you got impatient, in a good way, because she was sharing  the most intriguing stories that were clever and so honestly open hearted?   I want to invite you into my conversation with Antonia Malchik, freelance writer and stay at home mom.  Antonia has written essays and articles for Aeon, The Atlantic, Orion, High Country News, and a variety of other publications, and worked formerly as a church secretary in Austria, an IT journalist in Australia, and a barista in Russia. A Walking Life, about the past and future of walking’s role in our humanity, is her first book. She lives in northwest Montana with her husband and 2 children.   She dances the dance of moms that you may dance too - the dance of your own creative dreams, your children, your partner and the dance with the world.   I learned so much in this engaging, wisdom-filled episode with Antonia. I was inspired by her dedication to her creative path, the love for her family, and the terrain of this world and how we walk it. I know you’ll have some aha’s while joining us.    In today’s episode, we’ll explore: The wise realities of the dance as a mom, a creative, and a woman The 2 things that made her interested in walking and inspired to write her first book, A Walking Life Is walking a freedom we as a society are losing touch with? What is walkability & how can you get involved as an advocate When was the last time you walked with awareness?   Resources: You can find published essays and articles by Antonia can be found on her website www.antoniamalchik.com, and you can follow her on Instagram @antoniawalks.    To find out more about Walkability, you can refer to the links below: http://www.walk2connect.com https://americawalks.org/walkingcollege/ https://railvolution.org http://www.wherethesidewalkstarts.com/p/pedestrian-advocacy-groups.html http://www.designforwalkability.com   Check out Your Undivided Attention Podcast we talked about on the show:  https://humanetech.com/podcast/

Do you cram so much in before a summer vacation that you’re exhausted before you hit the road?   Do you take on new projects and get distracted even while you’re packing for your trip?   Do you get short fused with your family in the chaos before you head out on your vacation?   Do you feel jammed packed in your days leading up to a vacation and wonder how you could feel more peace, more ease, and more space and promise yourself next time it will be different?   If you answered ‘YES’ to any of those questions, this podcast episode is for you and if this isn’t for you, I bet you know exactly which of your friends you’re going to lovingly share this episode with!

What you believed might be an overshare whether in a 1-1 conversation, a video, or from stage?   This week I’m exploring the art of conversation. I was inspired by James Baldwin’s quote I read in July’s Oprah Magazine:   “In order to have a conversation with someone you have to reveal yourself.”   Isn’t it true that what we give, we get back and then some. So wouldn’t it make sense that it also applies to how present and engaged you are in a conversation.   This is a favorite topic and teaching of mine because conversations weren’t easy for me when I was a kid and even as I got older. I was shy, not confident, and was afraid of saying the wrong thing and being judged.   Then something changed which you’ll hear more about when you join me for this week’s episode.   Let’s keep it going after you listen, please share your best conversation starter and also what you liked best about this week’s episode.   In this week’s episode, you’ll learn:   5 Must Have’s of the Art of Conversation and how they apply both online and in person. 4 Benefits of Conversation Is social media changing traditional conversations for adults and how How to engage in more meaningful conversations that help your personal growth, business skills, and level of daily happiness How to know if you’ve had a vulnerability hangover What exactly is a conversation   Resources: Check out this article on social interaction, skills, and conversation: https://thriveglobal.com/stories/how-social-media-affects-our-ability-to-communicate/
