Welcome to The Friend School podcast with Matt & Paige! It's time to discover your confidence and deepen your connections with others.


In this first episode of season 2, we're kicking off our "Friendship Myth Busters" series by tackling a big one: the belief that friendship is easy, automatic, and effortless.


Spoiler alert: it’s not.


But here’s the good news: it’s absolutely possible!


Jump in as we talk about why adult friendships often feel harder, what we can learn from childhood (and why it doesn’t always help), and practical ways to move from loneliness to meaningful connection.


Let’s ditch the myths and build friendships that last.


TALK IT OVER:

  1. Have you ever felt let down because a friendship didn’t “just happen”? What unrealistic expectations might have been at play in that experience?
  2. Which is harder for you: making time or going first? Why do you think that is?
  3. What would change if you started seeing friendship as something to build, not find?
  4. Who could you text this week to take one small step toward stronger connection?
  5. What lies or mindsets around friendship do you need to unlearn?
  6. Has someone ever been persistently intentional with you in friendship? What did that mean to you?
