Frequently Asked Questions

Why Is Connection So Important?

Social connection is a universal human need, yet people across the globe struggle with loneliness and isolation. They feel disconnected at work, at school, at home, and in their communities. The Daily Connector provides the encouragement, motivation, and guidance of a trusted friend. It offers straightforward advice that anyone can use to build a happier, healthier, and more connected life.

Where Can I Get The Daily Connector?

The Daily Connector is on Amazon as a hardcover, a paperback, and Kindle e-Book.

How Do I Use This Book?

The Daily Connector is split into three parts, each designed to help you build stronger, more meaningful relationships. The first part is all about clearing space—in your heart, your mind, and your calendar—so you’re ready to do the work of connecting with others. The second part helps you turn relationship building into a regular habit, not just something you do when you have time. And the third part focuses on how to keep those connections alive and thriving—and how your example can help others do the same.

Each section is organized around monthly themes. These 12 themes shape the daily lessons, with one simple practice or insight each day. You’ll find ideas pulled from history, science, psychology, and even pop culture. Every entry kicks off with a quote and wraps up with a doable action step—something quick and meaningful you can put into practice right away to feel good about the effort you’re making.

Do I Have to Begin on January 1st?

No. While The Daily Connector is written for readers to follow sequentially over the course of a year, relationships are not linear—and neither are the book’s lessons. Read it all the way through or take it one day at a time. Start on January 1 or begin on any day you choose. The key is to make the book yours.

Is there a companion journal to Daily Connector?

Yes, The Daily Connector Journal is the practical companion to The Daily Connector, featuring 366 prompts to help you cultivate strong relationships that bring more health, happiness, and success to your life. It is available on Amazon.

Is There a Daily Connector Audiobook?
