In this thought-provoking episode of Inside Personal Growth, host Greg Voisen welcomes back Charles Vogl, author of The Art of Community (Second Edition). Drawing from over a decade of experience and spiritual traditions, Charles explores the crisis of loneliness, why digital connections fall short, and how to truly cultivate belonging in our lives, workspaces, and neighborhoods.

From the Three Promises Framework—Freedom, Connection, and Growth—to the surprising power of simply inviting someone for a bowl of noodles, Charles offers both wisdom and real-world practices for building authentic, resilient communities. A must-listen for anyone feeling disconnected in our hyper-connected world.

He breaks down the five principles of meaningful connection, explains why vulnerability and accountability matter more than ever, and reveals how to design relationships intentionally instead of leaving them to chance. David also shares powerful real-life stories that show how generosity and trust can create life-changing ripple effects.
