Publisher's Summary

The world was in a loneliness crisis long before Covid-19.

As human beings, our brains are wired for connection. The feelings of disconnectedness people are facing today—isolation within our families, digital addiction, emotional trauma—hold worrying consequences for our mental well-being.

We’ve lost touch with the human tribe we were born into.

In this compelling guide to navigating connection in our modern world, human connection phenom Simone Heng walks you through the meaning of human connection as it relates to every aspect of life. Learn how to distinguish authentic connection from fake substitutes, understand how family trauma affects the way you connect with others, and discover the precise orbits of friendship you need to feel socially fulfilled.

Human connection is one of our most essential needs. With Secret Pandemic: The Search for Connection in a Lonely World, you can stop searching for it and start living it, forging the genuine connections we all crave.

If you seek an enriched life, this book is a must

This book, so eloquently narrated, captivated my attention from the very beginning.

At times confronting and also deeply moving, we need to be reminded of these messages.

Not only about human connection, but of how we must strive for equity to enhance this human existence that has become so disconnected.

Simone Heng is a delight and this book is a gift to humanity.
