Inner Circle taught the people. This playbook builds the circle.
The Inner Circle Playbook is a planner for who you invest in, and the words to use when it counts: meeting, mentoring, boundaries and repair.
Starting at $47. 18 page printable planner with scripts.
The problem
Friendships fade from neglect, not conflict.
You know who you want in your corner. Then life gets busy and months go by without a call.
The hard conversations are even harder: asking a mentor for time, setting a boundary, making things right.
The Playbook gives you the plan, the cadence and the exact words, so nobody drifts on your watch.

18 printable pages. Use it with a pen or on a tablet.

A note from Brandon
Lead with value. Give before you ask.
I'm a tech founder, a husband of 20 years and a dad of five boys. For years I was surrounded by people and still lonely: clients, team, followers, but few real friends.
The Playbook is the planner and the scripts I use to stay close to the people who matter, and to say the hard things kindly.

FAQ
How do I get it?
Right after checkout you land on a download page, and the PDF link comes to your email too.
Do I need Inner Circle first?
No. The Playbook includes it. Inner Circle: The Friends Field Guide comes in the same download, so you get the why and the how together.
Are the scripts word for word?
They are starting points. Make them yours. The goal is honest and kind, not slick.
Can I use AI with it?
Yes. Ten prompts are included. Never paste private details about other people.
Is this counseling?
No. It is practical encouragement, not counseling or therapy. If a relationship is unsafe, reach out to a licensed counselor, your pastor or local authorities.
