Hey!

On today’s solo ep I’m talking about making friends as an adult and how to enter your community era.

We talk about the challenges of finding new friends as an adult and the importance of putting yourself in situations where new people can be met, the importance of personal growth and becoming the kind of person one would want to be friends with, rejection and rejection sensitivity in friendship making and deepening friendships.
