As I build my business and think about how I want to treat my team, I often think about Tomi. A team is made of different personalities, perspectives, and ideas, and what brings all of that together is connection. The connection I have with Tomi reminds me of how important human connection really is. Lately, the time I spend with her has become less and less, and that has made me reflect on myself. I realized that I have been giving too much of my time to everything except connection. In a world shaped by AI, social media, and endless streams of information every day, genuine human connection feels more valuable than ever.
