Making Friends While Adulting

from SMART Counsel Hosted by SMART Counsel

What is a friend? And where do I find them? As kids, making friends (sometimes) seems to just happen. School, sports, church, band, and other groups facilitate connection, and younger people (sometimes) seem to have less baggage in approaching a peer. As adults, relationships are not a given. Rather than facilitating connection, many aspects of society seem to actively hinder people connecting with each other in a meaningful way, and the older we get, the stronger the hindrances! How do we overcome the barriers in society as well as our own insecurities to meet people and forge meaningful connections? Rhys, Ben, and Taralynn spin some thoughts and ideas about what keeps us apart and what we can do to be together. Check out the episode and let us know what you think.
