I'm a mom who was tired of feeling like all my energy went to everyone else. I wanted to be present and connected, while making real memories. And without spending hours planning how to do it.
I made it for my own family. Then teachers, grandmas, and activity directors started using it, and I realized it works anywhere people come together.
Recently, I cuddled up with my kids to watch National Treasure as part of The Connection Club. As a teenager, this movie made me look for hidden clues in cereal boxes and junk mail for months.
It reminded me how much a good story makes you see the world with fresh eyes. And how magical it is to share a piece of your own history with your people - even if it's just an older movie.
And that's just one small part of the Connection Club.
