#187 Human Connection during COVID – Emma Gibbens
Sunday Feb 21, 2021
Sunday Feb 21, 2021
How has COVID impacted our connection with one another?
This is the focus of this weeks conversation with Emma Gibbens who, based on her previous work as a political campaigner, now holds space for deeper searching conversations on a range of topics.
In this exploratory conversation we got into the need for boundaries; how social media has impacted the relationship between community, the market and government; we question the underlying structure of many assumptions that we connect upon; and we also consider how connection will differ, particularly for countries like the US and UK, as we come out of COVID.
Emma is obviously a bright and passionate lady, which produced a hugely thought provoking conversation.
