It’s easy to feel isolated when you’re stressed, over-extended, or overwhelmed. But that just might be the time you need your friends and family the most. Next time you feel you’re too busy to connect with others, consider taking just 5 minutes to reach out. A few moments of genuine connection can go a long way to reducing stress and making you feel better. Episode of #HouseCallswithVivekMurthy featuring @SaraBareilles and @celiakb available now wherever you listen to podcasts.
I guess not everyone can develop a psychopedagogy but everyone can develop a pedagogy.

That's capitalism's way of using soft power to make you go out and make content. Bills, the threat of homelessness, lack of healthcare or mental health services, everything being overpriced, etc. that's hard power but making you feel like you have to generate "something" to matter is gas lighting.
