Do you feel connected? Not only to others, but to yourself and the world around you? Forming deeper connections can help us find purpose, find meaning, and fine more joy in the life we live.
Join us for a fireside chat with OpenWater member and author, Adam Dorsay, PsyD , as he discusses his new book, Super Psyched: Unleash the Power of the 4 Types of Connection and Live the Life You Love!
We’ll sit down for an insightful chat about creating real connections, combating loneliness, building better relationships that last and more.
We are super psyched to have you join us!
About the Book:
In providing nearly 20,000 hours of intensive psychotherapy, Dr. Adam Dorsay has effectively treated hundreds of patients, from adolescent gang members to survivors of torture to Fortune 500 executives and professional athletes in the pressure cooker of Silicon Valley.
The common thread? They all struggled with the same sense of seemingly unshakable unhappiness.
The solution? Restoring or creating the deep bonds of connection to what truly mattered in their lives.
Drawing on more than a decade of practical research and Dorsay’s groundbreaking work with Facebook as co-creator of its international resiliency program, Super Psyched reveals an innovative framework for readers to create their own Connection Formula—a customizable tool that allows users to strengthen their bonds in four basic areas: with others, the world around them, their spirituality, and (perhaps most importantly) themselves.
Packed with actionable advice, unforgettable stories, and unexpected insights, Super Psyched is the ultimate handbook for unleashing the power of connection to live the life you love.
