About the show

A TED Talk in development, which discusses how the invention of mobile phones and computers were meant to make us more connected, but in fact have made us more disconnected. A negative spin off of this disconnection, has been the detrimental effect on verbal communication which always has, and always will be essential for us to thrive and live together. We train our bodies and minds, so why do we not train our verbal skills, in equal measure?
