In this special episode of Her College Coach, we’re kicking off a new segment called “Her Friends,” where I bring on my favorite people to chat about life, lessons, and all things college. Today’s guest is my best friend, Hannah, who shares her journey from Poland to Texas, and we reminisce about our freshman year at TCU, from meeting at Frog Camp to navigating the chaos of first classes. We discuss making friends, balancing independence with connection, and the unspoken challenges of college life, including culture shock, friendships that don’t work out, and the value of finding your person. Whether you’re starting college or just looking for some heartfelt advice, this episode is packed with relatable moments, laughter, and tips for thriving in your college journey.
