The Unspoken Rule of Making New Friends as Adults Artwork

How to be a Human Being in the World with Dr. Kathleen Young

Do you ever feel like everyone around you has it all together? Like life is so much easier for everyone else? Well, it isn’t. We are all just doing the best we can. We all have wins, joy, and happiness, and we all have losses, pain and grief. This is what makes us human. The hard stuff is happening to us all. It is just that most people aren’t talking about it - at least not out loud. Until now. This podcast will explore all the things that people aren’t talking about and showcase the strength, resilience, and humanity in all of us. It will show you how to embrace the messy parts of life and unapologetically be more of who you really are so that you can create a life you love. If you are ready to really start living your best life, this podcast is for you.

The Unspoken Rule of Making New Friends as Adults

April 04, 2024 • Dr. Kathleen Young • Episode 78

Navigating the complexities of relationships, whether with neighbors or colleagues, often involves overcoming the awkwardness of small talk and the comfort of our private spaces. However, the willingness to engage is more crucial than any conversational skill in initiating new friendships. Through a blend of vulnerability and direct conversation on live Zoom calls for a friendship challenge I recently hosted, I discovered the irreplaceable value of face-to-face interactions.

This episode is a heartfelt exploration into why, despite our digital world's conveniences, the true essence of building bonds lies in the warmth of live exchanges, and how stepping out of our comfort zones can lead to the most rewarding of human experiences. Tune in as we challenge the common excuses that keep us from nurturing our social ties, inspiring you to make room for friendships with the same zeal as you would for your favorite leisure activities.
