Love Life Connection

How you do one thing is how you do everything. While this podcast focuses on romantic relationships, I find that a lot of my clients have similar patterns and issues that show up in their platonic relationships too, especially friendships. In this episode, I talk about how to make more friends, how to form better friendships with new and older friends alike, and how to deal with conflict within your friendships (including ending them). 4:41 - The myth about making more friends (and where it comes from) 7:04 - A favorite way to grow your friendship circle (and two assumptions that’ll help make it easier) 16:46 - How making better friends is similar to making new ones 19:59 - Building up your rejection resilience muscle and learning to stay unattached to the outcome 23:02 - Keys to setting boundaries within better friendships 27:03 - Common patterns I notice with clients who have conflicts with friends 29:13 - When it’s time to have a conversation with a friend and how to navigate conflict within friendships 34
