Highlights
“This program should be taught in schools and to practically every human.”
“A safe place to try out the tactics immediately.”
“Scientifically, purposefully improving your relationships is really time-effective, low-hanging fruit.”
“The lessons can be applied to real-world interactions, which feels a lot more doable and natural.”
Better social connection can also extend your life expectancy by 15 years
Lacking social connection is worse than smoking cigarettes daily or getting diabetes, and significantly increases the risk of premature death, depression, heart disease, anxiety, and dementia. Learn more about the research.
“This was the highest rated training our team has ever done and multiple people approached me independently to rave about it and ask for more. Valuable, insightful, and engaging — we immediately incorporated some of the strategies to our work with each other and with our clients.”

Meet your facilitator
Hi 👋 I'm Phil.
I have 11 years of experience in consulting, advertising and tech startups, managing 40+ people across roles in sales, customer success, and strategy. I’ve led team-building and connection workshops worldwide and I am so excited to share this foundational program on Relational Fitness. It draws from science, executive coaching, b-school programs at Stanford and Harvard, and leadership development at McKinsey, Bain and BCG. My journey began with a personal setback—a missed promotion due to difficult workplace relationships. This inspired me to focus on my interpersonal skills, leading to deeper connections in every aspect of my life including with close friends and family. Intentionally improving relationships has come to be my biggest passion in life. This program distills years of research and personal growth into a program designed to help you build meaningful relationships.
