Publisher's Summary

This fresh, inspiring call to community and connection from an entrepreneur and leader is perfect for anyone feeling alone and ready to set off on a journey to true belonging.

Many of us feel more alone than ever despite living in the most connected society in human history. We need to belong in the same way that we need oxygen - our physical bodies require it. We perform better and have greater successes as individuals when we are connected to the collective.

Join author Natalie Franke as she shares her story of longing for connection in the chaos and lessons learned on her journey to true belonging. Together we’ll uncover how to:

  • Kick scroll-induced jealousy to the curb and transform the way that social media makes you feel about yourself and others
  • Overcome loneliness by finding your people and cultivating true community in your personal and professional world
  • Strike the balance between camaraderie and competition so that you can live a deeply fulfilled and joyful life

Human beings are not highlight reels - we’re done fanning the flames of comparison, drowning in our insecurities, and being pitted against one another. We’re saying no to the endless rat race of getting ahead and good-bye to the narratives that leave us feeling left out and alone.

We are destined for something better. We’re made for so much more. Because knit into the fabric of our DNA, we were built to belong.

What the critics say

"Natalie challenges us to change our perspectives on business and relationships. If you have a narrative in your head that the other person is your competition and not your friend, that soundtrack is going to encourage you to miss so many new opportunities. Natalie confronts the scarcity and competition mentality head on in a way that proves there’s plenty to go around." (Jon Acuff, New York Times best-selling author of Soundtracks)

"A call to arms - heart is always more valuable than hustle, and community is always more important than competition. Natalie inspires us to lean into vulnerability and paints a vision for how you can link arms in business and friendship." (Emily Ley, best-selling author of Growing Boldly)

"A counter-cultural must-read! Business is all about relationships and yet, we are often in crazy, cutthroat competition with one another. Natalie reminds us that it doesn’t have to be that way! We can be successful women with drive and ambition and still make people our priority." (Lindsay Teague Moreno, best-selling author of Boss Up!)

Inspirational wisdom & practical advice for life &

Natalie's message is much need in our current age of disconnection and isolation. The power of her message, that cultivating community over competition, is truly life changing and has the power to change the world.

She shares deep wisdom and practical advice for fostering relationships, and building a business (and a life) that impacts others, making the world a better place. She writes with honesty, candour, and hope. There is an integrity and weight to her words because she practices, and lives, what she preaches. The impact of her message, life and presence, have changed me and the direction of my business.

I expected mostly inspiration when I first bought the electronic version to read and the audio version to listen to. (I usually only order physical copies of books I think will be a good reference tool). I loved listening to the emotion and sincerity in the author's voice as she narrates her story, and dishes out such practical, actionable wisdom on community building and starting/growing a business that matters. In listening, I decided I needed to order a physical copy so that I can mark it up and make notes in the margins. It's that good.
