Over the last 2 weeks I’ve had multiple discussions with friends I made in my early 30s that we’re all struggling to make meaningful deep connections with new friends. Three of us sat on a 2.5 hr conversation with multiple bouts of tears reminiscing on our friendship over the last decade. We now live on different continents and provinces many thousands of miles apart. On reflection I think we were mourning our friendship and what they used to be. Yearning for the past and wishing it could be in the now. Those special friendships don’t come often.
So this week on the podcast I decided to record an episode sharing more of my thoughts and what I’m currently experiencing making adult friendships since being back in the UK.
If you’ve been struggling finding friends and your community this short punchy episode is for you 💜.

It’s funny because another of my close friends who’s in Canada shared that I must watch the new film “Good Grief” written and directed by Dan Levy. He also stars in it and is currently streaming on Netflix.
It’s such a powerful film about navigating grief, loss and endings, but it’s also about friendships.
So I don’t believe in coincidences. Just after signing off today’s episode about friendships, I’m driving to an osteopath appointment and an episode of Talk Easy with Sam Fragoso starts playing. And it’s an episode with Dan Levy talking about why he wrote “Good Grief”, his journey navigating loss, endings and grief. But also the importance of friendships and why he featured them as a theme so heavily in this film.
The episode moved me to tears and so is the perfect episode to pair with my episode this week on “Things That Die.”
Plus if you’re a creative he really goes deep into how he uses his creativity to process and create from big emotions. I found it really helpful for my own process.

This episode is so timely. It struck a chord I’ve really been feeling lately. Feeling the space of old friendships that have faded into the past (for all reasons). The space/longing to connect with others who are on the spiritual path. The sadness of letting select people know I’m struggling but not receiving support. Not having healthy family connections. Not wanting to dwell, accepting what is, but feeling the weight.
