Reconnect & Reach Out

A low-cost weekly template for widening your social world. You'll appreciate the role of casual 'weak ties', reach back out to people you've drifted from, and use interactive technology to make reconnecting easy.

Grade inherited from the evidence blocks this routine implements. Duration is a starting point (do more or less); the app just tells you where you land against the evidence-based dose.
  1. 1
    Close Ties and Weak Ties Both Count
    List a few weak ties (neighbors, acquaintances) worth nurturing
    Casual interactions add up to a real sense of connection.
  2. 2
    Reconnect With People You've Drifted From
    Reach out to 1 dormant contact per week
    Core practice. A short, warm message is enough to reopen the door.
  3. 3
    Use Technology to Stay Connected (Wisely)
    Follow up with an interactive call or message thread
    Use tech to sustain the reconnection, not just a one-off ping.
