Do you find yourself always keeping track of your Instagram likes and followers?

Or does it take you so much time editing or polishing before you put anything out on the internet?

How do you feel about being inundated with noise from promotions or bombarded by edited images and highlight reels? 

All this could leave you feeling starved for real-life, legitimate, caring connections.

Today, I talk about how you can make your digital communication more authentic. I also discuss traditional modes you can re-implement in your business so you can satisfy your very real need for connection while still getting the job done. 

With the spread of coronavirus, it gives this topic an entirely new meaning. 

How can we find and experience real-life connections when we’re restricted and now literally quarantined to our screens, working from home all day?

You can’t take for granted your authentic relationships. This time teaches us to cherish our time with people in the flesh and to do our best to create more authentic connections online. 

In this episode, you will hear:

  • Why you should consider in-person Zoom meetings over messaging on Slack
  • How you’re actually creating your own 9×6 prison cell
  • How to get creative and personal with your touchpoints
  • Other ways to create authentic, meaningful connections
