In an age where everything is so fast-paced, it can be difficult to slow down and connect with people on a meaningful level. It’s becoming increasingly hard to find people that align with us and what we stand for.   How do we slow down and form meaningful relationships and uplift one another? How can we help others and ourselves feel less disconnected and lonely?   In this episode, author Amy Daughters joins me to talk about her book "Dear Dana: That time I went crazy and wrote all 580 of my Facebook Friends a Letter." and how she’s touched so many lives by simply sending a handwritten letter. We also talk about the value of giving people your time, forming relationships and why it’s good to vent to people who aren’t really in your circle.   People felt compelled to share with me because they felt like they were being treated as an individual which turned out to be very powerful. -Amy Daughters   3 Things You’ll Learn in This Episode   The power of sharing your storyCan the simple act of sharing our experiences uplift and empower others even if it makes us feel vulnerable?    Following your intuitionHow do we start listening to and following our gut feelings?    Why you don’t need to fit in to be a good friendEveryone has different cultures, stories and experiences.
