The Power of Connection: Why Friendship Matters More Than You Think
Description
We all crave connection—but in the busy shuffle of adult life, it’s easy to lose touch with the very relationships that keep us grounded. In this solo episode of Grow the Good, I’m diving into the topic of friendship and why it’s essential—not just for happiness, but for our health and longevity.
I explore why making new friends gets harder after 30, the different types of friendships we need, and the surprising power of spontaneity when it comes to feeling close and supported. I’ll also share the one thing I’ve started doing that has completely transformed how connected I feel day to day.
This episode is a reminder that connection isn’t just a feel-good concept—it’s a pillar of well-being. Whether you’re craving more meaningful relationships or simply want to bring more playfulness into your life, this one’s for you.
Key Takeaways:
- Connection is foundational to a fulfilling life
- Quality of friendships > quantity
- Making friends gets harder with age—but it’s possible
