Why You Need Male Friends

Talking points: masculinity, mental health, friendship

Short but important one, team. I'm sure you've seen the memes that go something like "Is the cure for male loneliness pickleball?" Maybe you've rolled your eyes at them more than once. I have.

Nevertheless, the data is clear, and a lot of men out there are starved of quality friend time. Here's how to change that.


(00:00:00) - Intro and why friendships are so important

(00:02:11) - The challenges, and tips to overcome them

(00:05:05) - The value of reciprocity and shared interests

(00:10:00) - Conflict is a part of it
