If I were to ask you how healthy you are right now, what would you say? Would you tell me about your social life? How many friends have you connected with in the last week? Or how connected you feel with your local community?

Probably not, but Kasley Killam says that social health is vital to our physical health & by ignoring it, we’re missing out on some huge benefits.
