3 Ways You Might Be Sabotaging True Friendship (and How to Build an Inner Circle)

Hello Hayes is a podcast about the work of becoming — honest, layered, and always evolving. Whether she’s navigating a creative block, untangling relationship patterns, or rethinking ambition, host Hayes (Alexandra Hayes Robinson) invites you into her own process and encourages you to explore yours.
Originally known for her advice column on TikTok, Hayes brings a clear, curious, and emotionally intelligent voice to long-form audio. Her work — featured in BuzzFeed, The New York Times, and CBS — explores the questions beneath the surface: Who am I, really? What gets in the way of that? And how do I keep showing up as someone I recognize?
This isn’t about self-help shortcuts or expert advice. It’s about asking the right questions, honoring your process, and knowing you’re not alone in it. Whether you’re navigating a major life shift or craving more clarity in the everyday, Hello Hayes is here to help you feel supported, capable, and curious about who you’re becoming.
