What does it mean to make an intentional connection?
Making intentional connections is the act of building a sincere and meaningful relationship or understanding with someone. This involves being present, engaging, and showing genuine interest in the other person and their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. It’s about moving past the surface level interactions to create a deeper connection, whether it be personal relationships, professional relationships, or social gatherings. Intentional connections involve clear communication, being empathetic, and an eagerness to share and listen.
