Navigating Friendships in Adulthood: Defining, Maintaining, and Evolving Connections


Listen Later

Ever feel like adult friendships are a whole new game? You're not alone! In this candid Episode 10, we're unpacking the nuances of friendships in adulthood – how they form, change, and what it takes to keep them thriving (or know when to let go).

We get real about:

  • Redefining "Friend": Is it still about daily hangouts, or more about shared values and purposeful connections?
  • The Power of Your Network: Why having different "buckets" for your friends (day ones, work connections, casual buddies) is actually a superpower.
  • Long-Distance Love: How do you keep strong bonds when miles separate you? Hint: It's about quality, not quantity.
  • When Paths Diverge: Embracing the natural evolution of friendships, and how sometimes growing apart is part of growing up.
  • Unpacking Communication Gaps: A lively discussion on men vs. women's friendship styles and what makes us tick (or not tick!) when sharing details.
  • Friendship Economics: How do you identify value – are you feeding each other, or is it a one-way street? And when is it time to cut ties?

This episode is a must-listen for anyone building, nurturing, or re-evaluating their adult friendships. What's your biggest friendship lesson?
