5. I used an app to get dinner with 5 strangers on a Wednesday night

Making new friends as an adult can feel awkward, intimidating, and sometimes downright impossible. But it doesn't have to be.

In this episode, I share how I used my own framework to make friends as an introvert, my mind drama along the way, and how having dinner with 5 strangers on a Wednesday night worked out. I talk about choosing friendship instead of waiting to be chosen, and how to keep the process light and fun for yourself.

If you’ve been feeling lonely lately or telling yourself “making friends is too hard now,” and you don’t know if it’s possible to make friends as an adult, this one’s for you ♥️
