Ep. 531: Arrive Right on Time, Benefits of Pill Organizers & the Strongest Way to Make Friends

from Happier with Gretchen Rubin · host Gretchen Rubin / The Onward Project

We discuss why arriving right on time for events makes it easier to have fun and to network (especially for introverts or newcomers). We also share the benefits of using an ordinary weekly pill organizer, and explore research supporting the Secret of Adulthood: “One of the best ways to find friends is to make friends with the friends of our friends.” Plus, a listener asks for suggestions about how to request support from family and friends after her recent diabetes diagnosis.
