You’ve heard it. Maybe you’ve said it: “I don’t need friends.” Whether it’s past wounds, a jam-packed schedule, or pride disguised as independence, many of us quietly buy into the myth that going solo is strong. In this episode, we dig into the deeper reasons people drift into loneliness without realizing it, and we unpack four powerful reasons that might be holding you back from friendship (yes, they all start with "P").

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

Let's jump in and debunk some myths, get real, and talk about what we miss out on when we start to believe we're better off alone.

TALK IT OVER:

1. Which of the 4 Ps resonated most with you—and why?

2. What’s one way your pride might be keeping you isolated?

3. Have you ever used “I’m too busy” to mask something deeper?

4. What would it look like this week to create margin for connection?

5. What’s a wound that might be keeping you from going deeper with people?

6. Who’s someone you could reach out to today?
