This episode comes in response to questions from listeners about how to connect more deeply with other and how to feel comfortable when you're new and feeling excluded. It's human nature to want to be liked and noticed. But when we operate from a place of needing to be liked we open ourselves up to rejection and are less than authentic which is not an attractive trait. When you just decide to like others, be interested in others, and know that friendship is only a thought, that's when people are drawn to you and ironically you don't even need it then.
