ONE THROW AT A TIME: How We Rediscover Connection through Play

Foreword by three-time American Cornhole League World Champion Rosie Streker

One Throw at a Time invites us to relax into connection – where one breath, one pause, one "yes" can change everything. Modern life has quietly eroded our sense of belonging through relentless busyness, screen-filled routines, and the persistent myth that self-sufficiency equals strength. One Throw at a Time demonstrates how to gently reclaim what's been lost, by welcoming play back into our lives. It shows how these moments lower our defenses, awaken presence, and rebuild meaningful connection in our families, friendships, and communities. If you feel surrounded by people yet oddly alone, if you long for deeper relationships but don't know where to start, or if you simply want to feel more alive on ordinary days, this book will help you reclaim the tiny openings where connection begins. Most importantly, you'll discover that connection isn't something you earn. It's something you practice, one throw at a time.
