Is your squad feeling a little too crowded? In this episode of Feelings & Other F Words, we dive into Dunbar’s Number—the theory that you can only maintain so many meaningful relationships before your brain taps out. From your ride-or-die besties to that coworker you always awkwardly wave at, we explore the science of friendship, why some connections fade, and how to prioritize the people who matter most. If you’ve ever felt stretched thin trying to stay “loyal” to everyone, this one’s for you!
