Relationships are critical to our personal and professional success. In understanding our story and our various identities, we can make stronger, more impactful connections. Although many of our relationships are transactional, our goal is to build transformative relationships. It starts with our understanding of who we are, the power of our narratives and the importance of building our network. We might be physically distancing from others but this is the time to lean in and not socially distance ourselves from building the community we seek.

  • How to take a seemingly transactional relationship to a transformative one
  • How we can build community
