Made to Connect: Quick & Powerful Tips to Build Meaningful Relationships

Hey, you. Yes, you, listening right now. First off, I just want to say—thank you. I know there’s a lot going on in your world, in all our worlds. And yet, here you are, showing up for yourself, tuning in to a conversation that I hope will leave you feeling a little lighter, a little more understood, and—most importantly—a little more connected.

Because, let’s be honest, connection feels harder than ever right now. We’re tired. We’re overwhelmed. We are living in a time where we’re bombarded with uncertainty, leadership that doesn’t exactly inspire trust, and a whole lot of decisions being made for us that we have zero control over. It’s exhausting. And when we feel exhausted, what’s the first thing to go? Our ability to truly connect—with ourselves, with our loved ones, with our coworkers, even with strangers in the grocery store who, let’s be real, may or may not be blocking the entire aisle while texting.

But here’s the thing—we were made to connect. It’s literally built into us. It’s what keeps us going. And even when it feels hard, even when we’d rather just wrap ourselves in a burrito of blankets and scroll endlessly on our phones, we can find ways to reconnect. And today, that’s exactly what we’re going to talk about.
