S3, Ep 7 Best Friend Therapy: Feeling Left Out - What is FOMO? How can loneliness affect us? Why is self-awareness the antidote?


Listen Later

You’ll never be left out from Best Friend Therapy, but if it’s a feeling you know elsewhere in your life, this week’s episode might be for you.

We’re talking about FOMO, not being invited to the party, or sitting at home in your pyjamas while everyone else is out having fun (although, this sounds like Emma’s idea of heaven).

Born into the world dependent on others and racked with self-consciousness throughout puberty, it’s no surprise that humans are sensitive to feeling left out. We’re here to help you feel more grounded and better able to build connections by becoming the most *you* version of yourself, and starting from a place of self-belonging.

We talk about the joy of being left out and the importance of saying no to some invitations, to be able to say yes to the ones that count.

Elizabeth admits that she hates Glastonbury and Emma finds her spiritual home in the M&S café.

They both also lose the plot when trying to talk about a rustle in the bush and will endeavour to be more professional in future.
