Family isn't just something we're born into—it’s something we create.?During a panel discussion we hosted called "Fighting Loneliness in Our Digital World" at SXSW, Feeld CEO Ana Kirova explored the power of chosen family, community, and connection beyond traditional norms. What does chosen family mean to you?

Feeld CEO Ana Kirova took the stage yesterday at SXSW to moderate the panel “Fighting Loneliness in Our Digital World” with musical artist Kesha, poet-comedian-speaker-actor ALOK Vaid-Menon and mental health educator Minaa B., LMSW. Together, they unpacked the mental health challenges that shape modern life and explored how identity and marginalization influence feelings of isolation. Drawing on their unique expertise, each speaker offered nuanced and expansive insights that captured the complexity of both our digital and in-person worlds.

Our VP of Operations & People, Erin Shoji, recently spoke at Harvard Business School’s Future of Work Club to discuss a topic that’s shaping the modern workplace: romantic relationships at work, specifically looking at new types of relationship types outside of monogamy. From polyamory to open relationships, the way people connect is changing—and so is the conversation around how workplaces can foster inclusivity, transparency, and policies to reflect these shifts. Erin joined Paul Keable, Stacey Follon, Noah Krigel for a thoughtful discussion on what this means for HR, leadership, and company culture. Some key takeaways from the panel: 1?? HR policies are outdated. Erin emphasized that the future of HR should focus on consent and communication to support all relationship structures. 2?? Workplace relationships are inevitable. Instead of rigid rules, the onus is on leaders to foster open dialogue and an interactive approach to navigate them responsibly. As relationships evolve, so must the workplace. It’s time to rethink connection, culture, and inclusion at work. Have you seen any companies setting a great example in this space? Let us know in the comments below.

Our very own founder and CEO Ana Kirova will be moderating the panel “Fighting Loneliness in Our Digital World” at SXSW with musical artist Kesha, poet-comedian-speaker-actor ALOK and mental health educator Minaa B. Depending on the generation, anywhere between 1–3 out of 4 people report feeling lonely and disconnected sometimes or always. This panel will bring together experts from psychology, social activism, relationship dynamics, and mental health advocacy—alongside their personal experiences—to explore the complex roots of disconnection and the ways forward. Despite being in the loneliness epidemic, we’re primed for intentional and meaningful connection—if given spaces that encourage curiosity to foster that connection. Let’s support and learn from each other. ??? Mar 11, 2025 ?? 2:30pm – 3:30pm CT ?? Austin Convention Center Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eGkAgXtK

I’m thrilled to share that I’ll be moderating a panel at SXSW on a topic that’s been weighing on my mind: Fighting Loneliness in a Digital World. Despite being more connected than ever (or maybe because of it?), recent research shows that a majority of people feel disconnected sometimes or always. I believe we have the potential to build deeper, intentional connections if we create the right spaces — and we have the opportunities and tools to build this way now more than ever. We’ll explore how curiosity, inclusivity, and safe environments can transform isolation into forms of togetherness. I’ll be joined by brilliant voices (including ALOK Vaid-Menon, Kesha, and Minaa B., LMSW!) who’ve dedicated so much of themselves to understanding mental health, activism, and the future of human connection. As CEO of Feeld, I see every day how a fluid approach to identity, relationships, and lifestyle can create authentic bonds, even when screens try to keep us apart. I can’t wait to dive into the stories, research, and insights that will spark new ways of thinking about loneliness and belonging in a digital era. If you’ll be in Austin, I’d love to see you there. You can follow along here for real-time updates. Let's build a more deeply connected world — as humans, and together. I believe we can and I know we can ??
