Super Psyched

Unleash the Power of the 4 Types of Connection and Live the Life You Love

Foreword by A. J. Jacobs

“Connection is at the heart of everything we want. This book is our key.”

—Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone

Connection is everything. Let the therapist to Silicon Valley’s top executives help you become super psyched by discovering your personalized formula for higher performance, better relationships, and a more meaningful life.

The harmful effects of loneliness and lack of fulfilling relationships are well-documented—higher rates of anxiety, depression, sleeplessness, addiction, and even premature death.

In providing nearly 20,000 hours of intensive psychotherapy, Dr. Adam Dorsay has effectively treated hundreds of patients, from adolescent gang members to survivors of torture to Fortune 500 executives and professional athletes in the pressure cooker of Silicon Valley.

The common thread? They all struggled with the same sense of seemingly unshakable unhappiness.

The solution? Restoring or creating the deep bonds of connection to what truly mattered in their lives.

Drawing on more than a decade of practical research and Dorsay’s groundbreaking work with Facebook as co-creator of its international resiliency program, Super Psyched reveals an innovative framework for readers to create their own Connection Formula.

Packed with actionable advice, unforgettable stories, and unexpected insights, Super Psyched is the ultimate handbook for unleashing the power of connection to live the life you love.

—Mel Robbins, New York Times bestselling author and host of The Mel Robbins Podcast

“Drawing from his unique experience, research, and insights, Dr. Adam Dorsay guides readers to identify their unique ‘connection formula’ in this empowering invitation to embrace the remarkable work of living fully.”

—Guy Kawasaki, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of the Start and Think Remarkable

“The greatest predictor of both long-term happiness and success is the same: social connection. In a world awash with disconnection, Super Psyched provides a comprehensive and practical approach to creating more and better connections in every domain of life.”

—Shawn Achor, New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Advantage and Big Potential

“From the perspective of the author of Super Psyched, connection is ontological, meaning it is ‘reality,’ not just an emotional-cognitive bond. Not only does this make sense to me—I agree with it absolutely. Connecting is being. That means we cannot actually disconnect, but we can and do ‘experience’ disconnection, for the variety of reasons listed by Dr. Dorsay. This experience of disconnection is the source of all forms of human discontent and suffering, about which the author offers an encyclopedic discussion of the sources that restore connection. Not often does a book come along that is so fundamentally important. We recommend it to everyone.”

 —Harville Hendrix, PhD, and Helen LaKelly Hunt, PhD, New York Times bestselling coauthors of Getting the Love You Want and cocreators of Imago Relationship Therapy
