If only they knew. You’ve been burned by church—gossip, hypocrisy, wounds that make isolation feel way safer than community. Meanwhile, parenting teens feels impossible: anxiety, porn, loneliness, and digital overload threaten to derail their faith. Turns out self-sufficiency sounds empowering but crumbles under real pressure. If you’re tempted to quit on people or give up on the long game, Shelby Abbott, author of Why We’re Feeling Lonely and What We Can Do About It, calls you back. He explains why going it alone doesn't work...and how messy relationships just might be worth it.

If they really knew me, would they still love me? That fear of vulnerability fuels loneliness, curated online masks, people-pleasing, and walls that block deep friendships, marital closeness, or authenticity in ministry. And suffering eventually deepens that fear instead of healing it. If you're weary of performing, tired of fake friendships, and craving courage for real connection, listen in. Shelby Abbott, author of Why We’re Feeling Lonely and What We Can Do About It, exposes the roots of our universal dread--and points the way to freedom from approval-seeking and isolation.

Got packed days, full feeds--but still that nagging emptiness? The loneliness we hide is real, fueled by tech that mimics friendship but starves the soul. It's not just you. Authenticity feels rare and intentional relationships hard to build. Shelby Abbott, author of Why We’re Feeling Lonely and What We Can Do About It, cuts through the noise with lived experience and faith-rooted truth. If you've been wondering, "Why am I so lonely?", he'll help you stop living at surface-level—and start pursuing what truly satisfies. Your practical hope for deeper belonging starts here.
