Call a parent or sibling

Why this matters
Why bother?
Family relationships erode silently when you don't maintain them. A 10-minute call weekly prevents years of distance.
How often
Weekly for most; biweekly if that's what you can sustain honestly.
Best time: Same slot every week so it becomes automatic.
Pro tip
Same day every week. Sunday morning, Wednesday lunch — pick one. Becomes a ritual instead of a chore.
Common mistake
Only calling on birthdays — then it's a performance, not a relationship.
What happens if you skip
Awkward holidays and the guilt stack.
