Why this book now
We’re wired to connect—but stress, busyness, and unspoken expectations slowly erode closeness. Connect Deeper replaces “Why are you…?” (which triggers defenses) with five WHAT questions that open people up, build trust, and turn intention into action.
The 5 Questions
- What matters most to you right now?
- What’s something you really want to accomplish?
- What are you doing to make that happen?
- What are your priorities today?
- What can I do to support you?
Use them with partners, kids, friends, teammates—even yourself. You’ll find WITH spaces (common ground), lower the temperature, and move forward together.
