Making Friends When You’re An Adult and Why It’s Really Okay To Just Be You

This episode is for anyone who has felt like you’re not __________ enough. Funny, quiet, inviting, loud, happy, empathetic – enough.

Holley Gerth is an author and life coach I stumbled on because of her passion for building real, life-shaping relationships by leaning into who you are instead of what you feel like someone expects you to be. This episode is also for those of us who take a minute to figure out how to make friends once you’re out of your college bubble. How do you continue to lean into growing relationships when everything else pulls you away from it? Really, just, how do you make friends? See, a bunch of us adults are asking the question for the first time because we’ve lived our lives essentially being friends with whoever we’re around. And then we go into the real world and learn, usually the hard way, friendships are intentional – not optional. They don’t just happen. It requires vulnerability, authenticity and – most importantly – time. 

Many of you have been asking the same question this year: How do you make friends as an adult? And I just happened to discover this episode Holly and I recorded a while back and knew now was the perfect time to air it.
