Dessert Auction at Local Restaurant Raises Thousands for Kids

What does it really mean to build a village, and to be a good villager, in a world where so many of us feel tired, lonely, and stretched thin?

In this episode, we welcome back licensed clinical counselor Kelly Martincin for a thoughtful conversation about connection, boundaries, and the quiet work of showing up for one another. Together, we unpack the idea that while many of us long for community, being part of a village requires intention, vulnerability, and a willingness to be a little inconvenienced.

From chronic loneliness and unmet expectations to self-care, community care, and redefining what support can look like, Kelly offers grounded insight into how relationships actually grow. This conversation may resonate especially with listeners who feel socially drained, overwhelmed, or overstimulated, whether due to personality, season of life, or mental health challenges. Ultimately, Kelly reminds us that villages aren’t built through grand gestures, but through presence, grace, and small moments of courage, even when it feels hard.
