The Importance of Friendship Quality over Quantity with Carissa Stanton

In this episode, I discuss with one of my besties the concept of friendship, what to expect from one another, and how to be your original self with the other. We also talk about upcoming projects and the importance of quality over quantity when it comes to friendships as adults. We give advice on how to make new adult friendships, highlighting the need for persistence and putting oneself out there. Join me in this very special episode!

Takeaways from this episode:

• The importance of being comfortable with oneself and having multiple friendships to avoid placing too much pressure on one person.
• A foundational and secure friendship relies on not expecting too much from each other, and always being there for each other.
• Trauma bonding playing a significant role in friendship.
• Appreciate everything for what it is and don't take things too seriously.
• It's essential to look at oneself and focus on being a good friend rather than blaming others for not being there. If someone is still not giving you the time of day despite your efforts, it's easier to cope when you know you’ve given it all.
