The How To Make Friends Podcast
Loneliness. It feels like something embarrassing to admit, can claw at a heart like nothing else, and often leaves us thinking we are the only ones dealing with it. You, Dear Listener, are not alone. Though if you feel like you are, my friends and I would like to be alone with you. I invite you along as my friends and I discuss what real friendship is made of and how we made it, tips for connecting with people and making friends not just acquaintances, how to handle disagreements and down seasons, what types of friends there are and how to know what you need, and finally, how to be a better friend to others. I invite you on this personal journey as we learn and tackle all things to do with the elusive ”friend.”
