With the decline of mental health in recent years, U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Vivek H. Murthy declared an advisory on the epidemic of loneliness that has been sweeping the nation’s youth.

In this Golden Conversation, Dr. Murthy and former Miss America Emma Broyles explore the impact COVID has had on our mental well-being and the loss of social connections in recent years. The two discuss how we can find strength in rejoining one another and returning to our true nature of interconnectedness.

Golden Conversations is a video series that explores the success and inclusion students experience at Arizona State University. Join us in our big gold chairs as we learn about the members of our Sun Devil community.
