In this video, I open up about what it feels like to have no real friends at 30, the slow unraveling of a friendship I thought would last forever, and how I’m learning to rebuild my life with more intention.
I talk about:
-Letting go of toxic or misaligned friendships
-The imbalance of confidence in toxic friendships
-What friendship means in your 30s
-The quiet loneliness of being in a big city like NYC
-How I’m putting myself out there again to find meaningful connections
If you're going through a similar chapter of rediscovery, I hope this makes you feel less alone.
Let me know in the comments if you’ve been through something similar. How are you finding your people in adulthood?
