Many of our listeners feel caught in a speed trap. They wake up running, they work in a state of constant acceleration, and by the time they slow down at night, they're too exhausted to actually connect with the people they love. They know something is wrong with this pace, but they don't know how to change it—or even if it's possible. Today we're talking about why that exhaustion exists, what it costs us, and what becomes possible when we finally decide to stop running.

Hello, I'm your host Dr. Anthony Silard, and welcome to ReSocial—where we rediscover, reflect on and renew how we approach social relationships so we can develop Compassionate, Meaningful, Sustainable Relationships, or what we call CMSRs.

I'm joined by Carl Honoré, award-winning author and speaker, who spent his career as a journalist watching the world accelerate. But his real breakthrough came when he realized he was caught in the same trap. Carl's here to talk about what changed when he decided to stop, and what that shift revealed about how we connect with ourselves and each other.
