Hey, friends! You are going to love today's episode because we are diving into something so essential for your well-being and (of course) your weight loss journey: friendship and connection.

I'm joined by my dear friend Jewel Holman, a social connection expert and coach, and we're unpacking the huge connection between friendship, emotional well-being, and sustainable weight loss. Because here's the deal: if you're not filling up your connection cup, you're probably turning to food instead.

Jewel shares her personal story of overcoming high-functioning social anxiety, how she learned to intentionally build deep and meaningful friendships as an adult, and her exact framework for making (and keeping!) real, fulfilling friendships. If you've ever felt lonely, disconnected, or just plain stuck when it comes to finding your people, this episode is for you.

Hit play to learn:

• Why there's a huge link between friendship and weight loss (hint: your comfort cup needs to be filled!)  
• How to break through social anxiety and actually build connections as an adult  
• The three key ingredients for deep and lasting friendships  
• How to make time for friendships---even when life feels insanely busy  
• What to do if you feel stuck in the "friendship dip" and don't know where to start

And if you're ready to take your friendships to the next level, make sure to check out Jewel's podcast The Socially Delightful Podcast and connect with her on Instagram @connectionwithjewel.
