ATTENTION: Socially Anxious People!

6 Weeks to Beat Social Anxiety!

Escape loneliness, build confidence, create a life worth living, and make lifelong friends in six weeks or less without approaching random strangers, spending all your time at bars, or pretending to be someone you're not.

Can We Be Friends?

If you're anything like me, that sentence is just about the scariest thing in the world to ask someone. The pain that comes with the possibility of rejection is brutal. There is no quicker way to lose all your self worth than being rejected by someone you only want to be friends with.

That’s why the last time you asked anybody that question was probably during your childhood and the reason you stopped asking was because one day someone told you “NO!”

The truth is you were never taught how to make friends. Your parents like their parents before them probably thought it was something that kids just figured out.

But just like juggling, speaking a foreign language, or rebuilding a carburetor, making friends is a skill that can be learned.

And if you never learn how to do it, life becomes very lonely.

The Day I Lost Everything

Over a decade ago a car accident stole everything from me. I could no longer pursue the career I had poured my life into. I was isolated with injuries and illnesses too numerous to count and so severe that I had to go on disability. I was so ashamed that I hid myself away at home for a decade and had virtually no friends.

I hid myself away behind a computer and played video games 12 hours a day to numb the loneliness. I thought nobody would ever like me or want to be my friend.

After hitting rock bottom, I spent the next 10 years intensely studying and practicing how to better communicate and connect with people. It was hard and I tried and failed so many different things it’s hard to remember them all. But the things that work I burned into my memory and began assembling a program that I hoped could one day help someone else struggling with loneliness escape isolation. Today I’m here to help you.
