Authentic Friending
Make high-quality virtual connections with no small talk.
Our Connection Buddy program is now...
Loneliness is REAL.
Making friends as an adult can be HARD.
Especially if you feel like you've outgrown or lost some of your friendships.
Bars are loud, dark and often lead to small talk.
Gyms don't lend themselves to getting to know others.
Where are we supposed to meet new friends?

Frequently Asked Questions
Who will I be paired with?
You will be paired with another active member of our community. Every pair is unique - that is, you won't be paired with the same person twice.
What if I'm on vacation or otherwise unavailable?
That's ok! You have the option of opting out anytime you're not available to connect. Simply let us know and we'll hold off on paring you.
Who can participate?
What happens after we complete the exercise together?
After you complete the video exercise together, you will both be given the option to rate your experience connecting with one another. If you both would like to connect again, you'll be given a second exercise to complete together.
What if I don't like one of the Connection exercises?
As with any of our exercises, they are complete at-will. That means that you never have to share anything you don't feel comfortable sharing.
When will I receive my Connection Friend's info?
For every week you participate, you will receive your Connection Friend's info on Friday for connection the following week.
When do I do the exercise with my Connection Friend?
You and your Connection Friend communicate directly to pick a time & date to have your video chat.
What if our availability doesn't align?
While we encourage the video calls to be done within the following week, we realize that might not always be realistic.
I'm in the LGBTQ+ community, can I be matched with others in the community?
Yes! We proudly offer LGBTQ+ specific pairing. After you subscribe, you will be asked a series of questions including your pairing preferences.
Can I pick my own Connection Friends?
Can I cancel my membership?
You can cancel your membership anytime. If you do decide to cancel, be sure to do so before your renewal date to avoid paying for time you don't intend on participating. We don't offer retroactive refunds.
What if my Connection Friend is unresponsive?
We ask that you give your Connection Friend at least 3 days to reply. If your Connection Friend becomes unresponsive, let us know so that we may pair you with someone new.
It has rewired my way of relating to myself and others in a very transformative way.
