When Friendships Fade, So Does Our Health

Loneliness isn’t just uncomfortable, it’s dangerous. When we don’t invest in our friendships, the cost shows up in every part of life:

  • Higher risk of early death, even greater than obesity.
  • Harmful to your body, as damaging as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
  • Stress hormones rise, immunity drops, and memory declines.
  • You feel more isolated, misunderstood, and disconnected, even in a crowd.

Friendships don’t grow on autopilot. Without intentional effort, connection fades, and health suffers.

The good news? You can measure and improve your Friendship IQ™ and start building the kind of connections that protect your health and enrich your life.

We get it. Friendship doesn’t grow on autopilot and when life gets busy, even good relationships can fade. You’re not alone in wanting more connection.

That’s why we created the Friendship IQ™ Assessment. That’s why we created the Friendship IQ™ Assessment, part of ongoing doctoral research in friendship science, built on years of study in emotional intelligence, social science, and relational health. Our team brings together:
  • Dr. Russell Greenfield, MD — Physician and integrative medicine leader connecting strong relationships to better physical health.
  • Donna Brighton — Leadership expert and PhD researcher dedicated to helping people grow relationally so they can thrive.
  • Lisa T. Grimes — Executive mentor and author guiding individuals and organizations toward collaboration, belonging, and connection.
Together, we’ve helped thousands of people strengthen their relational skills and experience the health, joy, and resilience that come from real connection.

Deeper Friendships. Healthier Life. More Joy Daily.

Success

Imagine waking up to a life filled with genuine connection—where you know you are seen, heard, and truly valued. With a high Friendship IQ™, every part of your day becomes richer:

  • Conversations feel natural. You enjoy meaningful exchanges instead of surface-level chatter.
  • Your health flourishes. Stress eases, your body feels stronger, and your mind stays resilient.
  • Life feels fuller. You laugh more often, recover from challenges faster, and savor the simple moments that make life beautiful.

Picture this: it’s an ordinary afternoon, and your phone lights up—not with another notification you could ignore, but with a thoughtful message from a friend who reached out simply because they care. You smile, your heart steadies, and gratitude fills you.

This is the gift of deeper friendship: a healthier, happier, more connected life.

Don’t Let Disconnected Days Turn Into
Disconnected Lives

When we neglect connection, even without meaning to, we risk far more than awkward silences or missed get-togethers:

  • Isolation creeps in. Surrounded by people, yet still feeling unseen or misunderstood.
  • Health quietly suffers. Loneliness isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s been called as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
  • Life grows smaller. Once-cherished friendships fade, joy feels distant, and everyday moments lose their color.

It doesn’t happen all at once. One day you simply realize the laughter is rarer, the check-ins are fewer, and the silence feels heavier. Without strong friendships, the days get lonelier and the cost of disconnection grows higher.
