Community doesn’t just happen—and meaningful connection takes intention.
If you’ve ever felt disconnected, disappointed by relationships, or unsure how to truly belong again, this episode is for you.

In this episode of The Grit & Grace Podcast, Dana sits down with Lori Harreldsen, entrepreneur, community builder, and CEO of Valor Connect, for an honest and powerful conversation about what it really takes to build authentic community.

After moving back to Oregon following nearly 20 years away, Lori found herself starting over—knowing almost no one. Rather than waiting to be invited in, she intentionally rebuilt connection from the ground up through curiosity, courage, clarity around values, and a willingness to step outside her comfort zone.

This conversation goes far beyond networking or surface-level relationships. It explores the deeper emotional work of rebuilding trust, choosing healthy community, and creating spaces where women support—not compete with—one another.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why community isn’t automatic and why waiting to be included keeps us stuck
• The difference between a comfort zone and a truly safe community
• How to rebuild connection after relational hurt or betrayal
• Why knowing your values helps you choose the right yes—and the right no
• How women can stop competing and start championing one another
• How small, honest conversations can lead to meaningful, lasting relationships

If you’re craving deeper connection, feeling the weight of isolation, or wondering how to begin again, this episode will meet you right where you are.
