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.

I was quiet and listened intently. Simone's openness and honesty in telling her story and all the series of experiences she has had - that have lead her to have this view on human connection - really resonated with me. It got me thinking about my own ability/inability to connect with people in varying situations. Where do I show up and shine and where I shrink. And it's all in and from my own life. There are plenty of very practical exercises that you could use to level up on connecting with people around you. And Simone's own voice is endearing and made me realise again the power of speaking through a smile and an open heart. Thanks Simone. And all the best for the new international edition that's coming out! (Let's Talk About Loneliness)
