The Power of Connection: Creating Lasting Friendships in an Increasingly Lonely World with Dr. Marisa Franco
Tuesday, July 28, 2026

About This Event
Join us in virtual conversation with bestselling author Dr. Marisa Franco, one of the world’s leading experts in human connection. Her book, Platonic: How the Science of Attachment Can Help You Make–And Keep–Friends, explores the science of different attachment styles and how they impact our relationships often in ways we don’t realize.
In Platonic, Dr. Marisa G. Franco unpacks the latest, often counterintuitive findings about the bonds between us. For example, why your friends aren’t texting you back, and the myth of “friendships happening organically.” Dr. Franco explains that to make and keep friends, you must understand your attachment style—secure, anxious, or avoidant: it is the key to unlocking what’s working (and what’s failing) in your friendships.
