In a world full of technology, staying connected should be easier than ever—yet many of us feel more isolated than we care to admit. I’m Josh Richey, and I want to share our story because it shows how powerful connection can be, even when you’re separated by miles. Ten years ago, Leslie and I hit rock bottom. Our relationship had crumbled. We weren’t just emotionally distant—we were physically apart as well. It felt like there was no way back.
 
We’ve learned that remote connection, when done with intention, can be just as powerful as in-person interaction. Our journey proves that it’s not about how close you are physically; it’s about how close you can become emotionally, no matter the distance. In this book, we’re going to share how you can create and nurture meaningful connections—whether you’re a thousand miles apart or just on the other side of town.
