Digital Intimacy™

A new framework for connection, growth, and human flourishing in digital spaces.

Why Intimacy?

We often think of intimacy as something private or romantic. But its root meaning reveals something deeper — and more universal.

| At its core, intimacy means “the act of revealing what is deepest within us.”

Digital Intimacy™ reclaims this essence —
Creating space for what’s real to be seen, heard, and shared in digital life.

Where hidden patterns become visible
Where authentic connection travels across screens
Where technology enhances human experience, not replaces it

Can we find intimacy in the digital space to elevate what makes us human?

What if digital connections didn’t just get things done,
but made us feel more alive, aligned, and together?

The 4 dimensions of Digital Intimacy™

The Digital Intimacy Framework reveals how we create meaningful connections in digital spaces through four interrelated dimensions.

Understanding the Picture

The dotted background represents RELATE - the field of our relationship with digital systems that contains and shapes all our interactions

The purple flowing shape shows how SEE, SENSE, and SHAPE move and interact within this RELATE field

The Core Relationship

At its heart, this model shows that:

RELATE is both a dimension and the field itself - how we engage with technology creates the environment for all other dimensions.

As we develop more conscious relationship with technology (RELATE), we enhance our capacity to SEE, SENSE, and SHAPE
As we strengthen our ability to SEE, SENSE, and SHAPE, we transform our relationship with technology (RELATE)

SEE - Becoming aware of ourselves and others in digital spaces

SENSE - Feeling the emotional currents in our digital interactions

SHAPE - Creating spaces that hold what needs to emerge

This reciprocal relationship shows that digital intimacy emerges from the continuous interaction between how we relate to technology and how we connect with ourselves and others within digital spaces.
