#54 - Finding Community in a New Town with Pittsburgh Social Health [Haley Ingersoll]
Manage episode 398171115 series 3434886
More and more people are moving cities. This hasn't always been the case.
Historically, we were born in an area, raised in an area, raised a family in that area, and then retired in that area. But this has gotten much different in the modern travel era. Spirit Airlines will give you a ticket for less than what a date night at a steakhouse will cost. Corporations are moving employees from one big city to the other. Tiktok and Instagram solo travelers are inspiring others to pull the plug and grab their carry-on.
This conversation is about building community after a move - because more than likely, you'll make a move. I speak with Haley Ingersoll, the founder of Pittsburgh Social Health and a community manager by trade. Haley and I have similar stories, moving from one city to the next and then being tasked with finding friends, missing our old ones, and then figuring out to meet people.
She built Pittsburgh Social Health which allows transplants who are either returning to Pittsburgh or fresh to Pittsburgh to find community and build much needed social support.
Things you can expect to hear are:
- innovative strategies and heartfelt efforts to knit the fabric of a supportive community
- the power of local events
- the role of digital platforms in fostering connections
- the importance of embracing cultural diversity
- how to leverage personal experiences to drive community initiatives
- the significance of understanding local culture
- and how small actions like neighborhood walks can lead to profound social engagement.

A quick note - moving is hard. And we often underestimate how much value the people have in our life that we're moving away from. Make sure to put in as much work as you can before you move, researching the area, finding things you could go to, and then making a plan. Also - ask your current network if they know anyone where you're moving and then see if you can get a warm hand-off. Doing these things will help set you up much better than going blind. And I strongly encourage you do these things!
