Episode 6: Adult Friendships: Making them, Keeping them, and Growing with them

Send us Fan MailFriendships as a an adult can be .......different, amiright?Distance, life phases, a variety of things can make connecting, even just a phone call, a little wonky.The time it takes to form a brand new friendships, can be hard to find with work, family, hobbies also all vying for attention and a piece of your 24hr day.  Is it worth it, YES.Will it always be as easy as it was in high school or college? No.What can we do?-Be understanding with the friends we do have, if distance or life phases/situational issues come up--- true friends are always there, even if it's been a while.- Be OPEN to the new friends surrounding you...they may  not be the same as your BFF from 5th grade, but give it time- it will take longer in most cases to build that strong foundation.   I mention a trick I learned following @ameskiefer  --- if your kids preschool has mail boxes for each kiddo--- it is NOT creepy to drop a note to a kiddo your child keeps talking about.... who knows where it could lead, and people think it is SO thoughtful.More on the podcast- I hope you will gain some insight, and also know you are not alone, if you have every struggled in the friendship category.  Also know, it won't be like this forever!Thanks so much for listening, and as always tag me if you do!xx ashPlease feel free to message me @We_arrow_on_podcast with other ideas or comments any time!
