Most of us feel it: a quiet sense of disconnection that slips into our homes, our friendships, and even our workplaces. We used to gather around the table—now we gather around our phones. We live in the same houses, share the same spaces, and work side by side, yet true connection, the foundation for strong collaboration, often feels thinner than it should. Why? Because connection—the simple act of showing up with and for each other—slowly erodes under stress, polarization, and the relentless busyness of life.

This session is about finding it again. Through stories, reflection, and practical ideas, you’ll uncover why connection fades and what you can do to bring it back. You’ll learn how to spot the little barriers that creep in, reset the habits that quietly push people apart, and rediscover the joy of living and working alongside others in meaningful ways. This isn’t about adding more to your plate; it’s about reclaiming something we’ve lost: the strength and belonging that come when real connection is alive in everyday life.

Upon completion of this session attendees should be able to:

• Identify everyday forces, like busyness, stress, or distractions, that quietly pull people apart.
• Adopt simple habits that bring you closer to the people who matter most.
• Leave encouraged and equipped to enjoy the people in your life again.
