Summary

As we get older, it feels like opportunities to make friends diminish. Even finding the time to maintain the friendships we already have can feel more challenging.

Between busy schedules, demanding jobs, family obligations and other responsibilities, we are left with little time for socializing, wondering how to be closer to those who make us feel like home.

In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with female friendship coach and educator, Danielle Bayard Jackson for tangible tips on how to overcome these challenges to spice up your social life, make new friends, and embrace the ebs and flows of friendship for years to come!

We also talk about…

  • How to navigate friendships through different seasons of life.
  • Types of friendships and how to find the aligned friends you need
  • Why friendship breakups feel so devastating, and how to cope
