Description

#350: Are you contemplating a move to a new city or recently moved to a new city and feel a bit lonely or lost? This is a common feeling and you're not alone.

On this solo episode, Emily Elizabeth dives in to her personal experience with moving, especially experiences where the move was not prompted by something external (ex. job, relationship, etc.) and how she naturally cultivated community and new friendships in those cities (Los Angeles and New York).

If you're struggling to find your footing and community in your new city, this episode is for you. Some topics Emily talks about:


  • How to put yourself out there and make friends
  • The easiest places to meet people with shared values and interests
  • Importance of maximizing friend groups and mutual friends
  • How to know whether someone is "your vibe" or not and could be a true potential long-term friend
