The Friend School

No Mask Needed (The Halloween Special) | Episode 025


Listen Later

This Halloween special takes a chilling turn as Matt faces the night alone...no Paige by his side. But don't shy away; we’re peeling back the layers of the everyday masks we wear. Not the playful ones from your local Spirit costume store, but the subtle, invisible ones crafted from societal expectations, judgment, and a blobs of stress.

Whether you're in ministry, business, caregiving, or any role that pressures you to ‘put on a show’ instead of connecting authentically, this episode is calling your name! Jump in to explore the importance of ditching our polished highlight reels and embracing our true selves.

After all, that's the secret recipe for forging strong, genuine friendships. When you know who you are, the message is clear: no mask needed.


TALK IT OVER

  1. What’s one “mask” you’ve realized you often wear in conversations?
  2. Can you think of a recent interaction when you slipped into performance mode? What might it have looked like to just show up as yourself?
  3. How has your role (job, ministry, family) affected your ability to connect on a personal level with others?
  4. What would change in your relationships if you believed you were already “enough”...already fully loved and approved?
  5. How can we be safe people for others to be “unmasked” with?
