We’re more connected than ever… So why are we so lonely?
We live in the most digitally connected time in human history, yet loneliness, burnout and disconnection continue to rise. Through her experience building brands, leading businesses and working in communities across Africa, Fallon Roocke explores the tension between visibility and genuine human connection in the modern world. From social media and hustle culture to identity, performance and purpose, this thought-provoking talk challenges what connection really means today and why being constantly online may be leaving many of us feeling more disconnected than ever.
