Friendships are always complicated, but creating and fostering male friendships can feel like another beast entirely. After a few episodes focused predominately on our female listeners, Erica decides to try her hand at navigating something she has only ever witnessed - creating and fostering a bromance. The male loneliness epidemic is still a prominent issue in America and men deserve the support and connection of friendship.

Erica discusses a young man's brave moment of vulnerability where he admits past mistakes that have impacted his ability to make and maintain friendships as well as his struggle adapting to life after college.

We hope this episode encourages men to seek community beyond traditional social settings and to embrace the journey of making new friends.

Just a girl hoping everyone can find connection and meaning - even the boys.
