Feminine as F*ck
Putting yourself out there and practicing
Monica shares early approachesβtalking on chairlifts, dog parksβand learning to initiate conversations.
Ooooof, making friends as an adult can feel HARD. If youβre tired of surface friendships, youβre craving deeper connections, and/or youβre secretly judging yourself for not having found βyour peopleβ yet... youβre going to seriously love this one.
Letβs just say that this episode is essentially a masterclass on *how to* make aligned friendships as an adult and tangible tips to grow your community. Monica goes deep into the energetics of effort, sisterhood wounding, navigating new seasons like motherhood or moving cities, and how your nervous system literally decides whether friendship feels safe or not.
Sheβs also getting into:
π€ How to tell if a friendship is aligned or just comfortable
π€ The trap of over-identifying with the βIβm better because Iβve done the workβ energy
π€ What to do when youβre the one always making the effort
π€ The invisible ways we block connection when we donβt feel safe to be ourselves
π€ How to build soul-aligned friendships when you're in a new city or season
π€ The sneaky ways sisterhood wounds show up (and how to start healing them)
π€ Why you need to stop looking for people who are βjust like youβ
π€ The importance of seasonal alignment in friendships
π€ How to know when to let go of friendships that donβt feel good anymore
π€ Somatic tips for starting richer & deeper conversations
