The Missing Piece to Wellbeing?
Human Connection
In a disconnected world, I help audiences reconnect — with themselves, each other, and what truly matters.
Through powerful stories and simple tools, I show why connection is essential and how to build it into everyday life. My talks spark real change by teaching social skills to deepen relationships and strengthen communication.
The results?
More joy. Better health. Deeper relationships — at work, at home, and in everyday life.

As part of the Women Trailblazers series, I discuss how my books address the importance of social connection as our society deals with a loneliness epidemic. The above video is my second segment, which includes my CONNECT approach and how strong social skills can lead to deeper connections.
This is the first half of my interview where we discuss how connecting with others is an overlooked tool that helps build resilience in uncertain times. I discussed how human connection can give us a dopamine hit, and how simple acts of connection help us to be happier and healthier and how we can fit it into our busy lives.
From Dr. Angela Williamson, Host of PBS show, Everybody
