Danielle Bayard Jackson: Why Making Friends as an Adult Feels So Hard (and How to Change That)

Ever feel like you're the only one struggling to keep a friendship afloat?

Danielle Bayard Jackson is a friendship coach, author, and educator who has made it her mission to decode the silent, often messy world of female friendships. In this eye-opening episode, she sits down with Sarah Grynberg to share the science and stories behind what makes our connections thrive and what quietly pulls them apart.

From ghosting and jealousy to the shame of outgrowing old friends, Danielle breaks down the unspoken rules that govern who we let in, who we hold close, and who we quietly let go.

You'll learn:

*Why some friendships end and how to know when it's time to let them.

*The three ingredients every strong female friendship needs.

*How to make new friends as an adult (without the awkwardness).

*Why holding on “just for the history” could be hurting you more than helping.

This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder: friendship is not about obligation. It's about energy, reciprocity, and choosing people who see you as you are and love you because of it.

Fighting for Our Friendships by Danielle Bayard Jackson is available now in all good bookstores and online here.
