why can making connections feel so HARD?
in this episode, we discuss the fear of missing out on meaningful connections (FOMO) in friendships, the challenges of making connections as we age, and the power of knowing your worth and embracing authenticity and how important it is for fostering meaningful connections with others.
we delve into the anxieties that can arise when we feel excluded or disconnected from our social circles, discussing how it can affect our perception of meaningful connections. Cara also shares some recent thoughts she's had on the difficulties of forging new relationships as we get older, addressing the possible reasons for it. we finally discuss the power of self-awareness, authenticity and knowing one's worth in building meaningful connections.
