38. How to Make Friends as an Adult: Interview with Sunshine


Listen Later

This episode features Kris's girlfriend, Sunshine. The big question is, how do you make friends as an adult? When you're a kid you don't even think about it, but as you grow up and join the real world it becomes more challenging, awkward even, to put yourself out there. This just means you have to be more intentional about how you find friends. There are apps to find best friends similar to those that you would use to find romantic partners, but you still have to navigate the real world in order to make and keep those friends.

Tune in to hear them talk about why it's harder than ever to make friends these days and what you can do about it.
