We’re not in a mental health crisis... we’re in the midst of a loneliness epidemic.

Psychologist and renowned speaker Dr. Jody Carrington knows that while we’ve never been more "connected," we’ve also never felt more alone. Unlonely is a mission to bridge that gap. This isn’t a clinical lecture; it’s a masterclass in reclaiming our humanity through the radical act of seeing one another.

Every two weeks, Dr. Jody sits down with world-class thought leaders to tackle the visceral reality of workplace burnout, nervous system regulation, and the anxiety of a digital age. Through raw, unfiltered stories and tangible strategies, we explore why we disconnect - and exactly how we get back to each other. Whether you're navigating trauma-integrated leadership or the chaos of modern parenting, this is your permission slip to stop doing it all alone.

Because understanding what it takes to become truly “unlonely” is the most urgent answer of our time.

Join us every two weeks as we learn to walk each other home.

  • What Happens After the Worst Day of Your Life? - Chance Toder
    Apr 2 2026

    If you’re walking through a hard season, or love someone who is, this one will stay with you.


    Dr. Jody Carrington sits down with Chance Toder for an unforgettable conversation about resilience after childhood stroke, medical trauma, and rebuilding a life that looked nothing like the one he expected. Born at 1 pound 15 ounces, Chance survived multiple heart surgeries, went into a coma after a stroke at 11, and had to relearn how to talk, walk, and breathe on his own.


    But this isn’t just a survival story. It’s a conversation about what happens next: the long rehab, the grief of watching other people move on, the fight for accessibility, the courage to keep asking for a chance, and the kind of family love that holds you together when everything changes.


    You’ll also hear about Chance’s wheelchair hockey journey, his lawn care business Leave It to Chance, his dream of public speaking, and the mindset that keeps him aiming for anything and everything.


    In this episode:


    - Chance’s resilience story after stroke and heart surgery

    - What recovery really looked like after coma and rehab

    - The emotional toll of disability, dependence, and delayed independence

    - Why accessibility matters in everyday life

    - How sport, work, and speaking gave Chance new purpose

    - The message he wants every listener to remember: just give people a chance


    This one is raw, practical, funny in places, and deeply human.

  • Why Are Parents So Emotionally Dysregulated? with Dr. Brooke Weinstein
    Mar 19 2026

    If you’re a parent, partner, helper, or human who feels like you’re holding it all together by a thread, this conversation is for you.


    Dr. Jody Carrington sits down with Dr. Brooke Weinstein - occupational therapist, nervous system educator, and expert in sensory and emotional regulation - to talk about why so many parents are emotionally dysregulated right now, and what it actually takes to come back to yourself.


    They unpack the impact of social media, pressure, burnout, and self-neglect on parent mental health, why understanding your own brain and body has to come before trying to “fix” your child, and how nervous system regulation changes the way we show up in our relationships.


    This is a deeply honest conversation about emotional regulation for parents, single motherhood, partnership, grief, and the slow, brave work of choosing yourself without abandoning the people you love.


    You’ll hear:

    - Why modern life keeps parents in a dysregulated state

    - What occupational therapy sees that many mental health conversations miss

    - Why self-regulation is the foundation of supporting your kids

    - How to stop taking a partner’s needs personally

    - Why caring for yourself is not selfish—it’s necessary

    - What small, sustainable regulation work actually looks like

    - Why doing your own work often helps the whole family rise


    If you’ve ever wondered why you’re so exhausted, reactive, or checked out, and why quick fixes never seem to stick, start here.

  • Why Loneliness Can Shorten Your Life (and How to Build a Social Health Plan) - Ken Stern
    Mar 5 2026

    Loneliness isn’t just uncomfortable - it’s costly. And the scariest part? Most of us are living it without calling it what it is.


    Dr. Jody talks with Ken Stern (*Healthy to 100*, *Century Lives*) about the loneliness epidemic and the link between social isolation and mortality risk - plus the practical shift that changes everything: building your social life with the same intention you’d bring to nutrition or exercise.


    They get into what “lonely” actually looks like in real life, why we’re spending less time with friends than we did a generation ago, and how proximity, community design, and technology have quietly pulled us apart.


    This is a call back to connection - with a plan, not just a wish.
