#14 - Making Deeper Connections With Friends with Jessica Smock
Description
The most essential point in this episode is about creating opportunities to see the same people on a regular basis. It takes a lot of repeated time together to get more familiar and really feel CLOSE. I think it’s why pickle ball and paddle ball leagues are getting so popular as one example.
I also discuss how keeping expectations in check might also be the key to feeling happier with the friendships we already have.
My guest for this episode is Jessica Smock, one of the co-creators of The HerStories Project website along with Stephanie Sprenger. Jessica and Stephanie first hired me in 2014 to become their friendship advice columnist!
