If you've ever told yourself, “Making friends is hard,” or “It only gets harder the older you get” — I'm here to lovingly call BS. I made a new friend recently (love you, Andrea!), and this is not a new thing for me. In today's solo episode, I jam on what I've learned from living in London, Dubai, New York, LA, Tulum, and Mexico City — and how I've made friends in every city along the way. I share the challenges and joys of forming new friendships, why friendships are nervous system medicine, what my mom taught me about making connections later in life, and my go-to tips for calling in aligned, soul-led friendships.You'll hear a step-by-step breakdown of my very first friendship date with Andrea, how our connection has grown, what to say to the universe when you're ready to call in your people, why making friends is a lot like dating — and more.

In this Real Love Scenario, we dive into a relationship dilemma that's all about boundaries—or maybe double standards. Her boyfriend has a rule: no new friends after the relationship starts. The catch? He already had close female friends, but she didn't have many friends at the time… and now she's expected to just accept that. Is this a fair boundary or a one-sided control tactic? How do you get your partner to understand when something feels emotionally imbalanced? And where do we draw the line between respect and restriction in a relationship?

 So older we grow so more difficult it gets to make friends.For our well being, most of the people need good friends.Today through our social media we have fewer friends and more virtually friends.The people are more connected to the Internet than to their friends and family. Our new Facebook friends are not real friends. If we try to meet them, to >90% it will not work out.  On vacations, it is easier to get friends and when we come home, the new friends stay far away… This will not work for most friendships… Even so on vacation, the people are much different than in their daily life.  We need friends where we live and not far away. It is easier to get a romantic love affair because we can connect with our senses and our mind is not in the way….Action Plan:1.) Do it blind… Ask your family/friends if they know somebody in your location which could fit you…. And date that person…2.) Share your hobbies, - my favoriteGo to local events or clubs and meet new people…. 3.) We all know a bunch of people and didn't get personal… Ask personal questions and connect with the people. Look what you have in common and connect.4.) Goal setting: Go to an event/party and connect with not more than 3 people… So more people we try to connect so less our chances to make at least one friend. 5.) Try to connect with a smile and then speak to the unknown person… It works! 6.) Be open to all kinds of people… Don't limit yourself,-  even it is a freak you don't like. Maybe he, she has something common or something that you like to be or not to be.  My Video: How to make new friends? https://youtu.be/fmQn3omqA18My Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast.B/How-to-make-new-friends.mp3

"Make new friends, but keep the old" is a saying that means it's important to continue nurturing, or even rekindling, existing friendships while also seeking out new connections in life.This is especially important advice for widows, as we find ourselves alone again after years of being with our partner. Our friendships and relationships can change. So the value of older friendships becomes more important than ever before.In this episode, we hear stories of lasting friendship from different widows and how their lives have changed and grown since the loss of their spouse. Rekindling old friendships - this is one of the strategies covered in the Overcoming Loneliness Workbook. To find more help and support on the subject of loneliness, check out the workbook at www.widow180.com/loneliness.

Is it just me or is making new friends as an adult harder than when you were a kid?  There are entire Reddit boards dedicated to helping people in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond make new friendships.  The reality is we form new connections differently as we age. Some of it is location based.  College students have built in opportunities to meet new people through classes and shared living arrangements.  But, things change when you graduate and move into the real world. Get married or become a parent and they change again.  You find yourself in new environments and those opportunities to form new connections shrinks based on your responsibilities.  But having good friends is key to managing stress and happiness. But it's definitely harder to meet new friends as an adult.  I met Cindy Muchnick, an educational consultant and co-author of The Parent Compass, during the pandemic when I interviewed her on Zoom.  We found ourselves chatting about all kinds of things after the interview.  Years later, we've only seen each other in person one time. But, we now exchange Christmas cards!  Cindy recently moved and has gone all-in on cementing her friend circle.  In one case, that meant trying to re-establish a friendship with a college classmate turned Facebook friend she hadn't talked to in 30 years!   "One day I just sent her a private message, and I said, hey, do you want to Zoom? I haven't talked to you in like 30 years. I'm super embarrassed, but I'd love to hear what your life has been since college, and she said, yes," said Cindy.    On this Dying to Ask: How your age impacts your friend circle How to reconnect with an old friend Where to find new friends And the 'Real Housewife' Cindy reconnected with through an email

We live happier, healthier, and longer lives when we feel deeply connected to other people. And while we might experience and express this need in different ways, the need for social connection is really universal. It's so fundamental that we have built-in biological mechanisms to encourage it. When we're socially isolated, our brain triggers cravings for human contact, in much the same way that it triggers cravings for food after a few hours of not eating. So, we literally crave connection. And that's why so many of us felt starved for connection during the pandemic. The problem is that in everyday life, many of us simply ignore the craving or we deny it. We treat socializing like an indulgence rather than an essential health behavior, and we fail to prioritize it. We recognize the importance of sleep, exercise, and healthy eating, and we take steps to maintain them. But going out with friends, going to Happy Hour, Trivia Night, these things often take a backseat. Somehow, they feel less important when in reality,

Episode #115: Today's "Quick Friendship Tip" is about how to capture the attitude and spirit of that special "freshman energy" apparent on any college campus in the first three weeks of school when making new friends as an adult.There is something real happening in that freshman year, specifically the first three weeks, that is magical for friend making. I saw it while dropping off my son for his freshmen year of college in August, and I remember it from my own freshmen year.  I'm grateful to former guest, Gretchen Rubin, (who also recently dropped off a child for freshmen year) for sharing a 2015 NYT article in her newsletter by Nicholas A Christakis called "Making Friends in New Places." Christakis described in more detail what exactly is happening in those first three weeks. I did not imagine it just a few months ago during the initial college move in days. While adult life cannot replicate those three weeks in exactly the same way, I have some ideas about how we can take what's essential about that vulnerable time and use it to our advantage as adults when we're in periods of having to make new friends or just wanting to get out of a friend rut. Send us a text* All transcripts are available on the main Buzzsprout "Dear Nina" site.

Gaea Star Crystal Radio Hour #588 is an hour of dynamic, visionary acoustic improvised music played by the Gaea Star Band with Mariam Massaro on vocals, Native flute, 4- and 8-string ukulele, shruti box, mandolin and dulcimer, Bob Sherwood on piano and Craig Harris on Native drum and congas and featuring today's special guest, Turkish singer and folk musician Ludimirra Ozdemir on vocals and playing his richly resonant Saz, a stringed instrument similar to a guitar.  Recorded live at Singing Brook Studio in Worthington, Massachusetts in late August of 2024, today's show begins with the varied, imaginative “Raise My Voice In Praise”, a rich, evocative song featuring fine instrumental contributions from the whole combo supporting a beautiful, sweeping vocal from Mariam.  “Transform” is a steady, powerful gospel-like song built on a two-chord motif from the piano and “Star Ray” begins as a delicate, tonally floating whisper and builds gracefully into a beautiful cathedral of sound with a lush, emotional ballet between Mariam's vocal and her Native flute.  “Make New Friends” appropriates a children's song to spin a musically rich, mysterious tale about rescuing a stuck deer in the deep winter before spinning into a powerful, gospel-pitched coda of rich vocal and stately piano.  The band slips seamlessly into a mysterious, swirling minor and a mirror-image of the previous piece emerges, a night to the day that has passed, lit with moonlight, plaintive and formal.  “Let's Realign” is an energetic, powerful folk reel led by Mariam's chiming mandolin that grows in power until settling into a beautiful piano coda supporting a hushed, whispered vocal from Mariam.  Ludimirra's arresting, powerful song “My Soul's Deepest Longing” rises unhurried from a beautiful mesh of Saz and Native flute, his powerful vocal performance arriving as if from a great distance.  This piece travels from the Turkish steppes to the frozen north as Bob's Prokofiev-sourced piano parts push and pull at the eastern modes.  Mariam floats in to close today's show with the solemn, powerful “Honor Your Spirit”, a concluding prayer that stretches and pulls the music in intriguing Afro-Cuban directions.  Learn more about Mariam here: http://www.mariammassaro.com

Welcome to the first episode of Dial Emma from Friendship Therapy! This is where you get to Dial Emma, with your dilemma (see what I did there?!) You share your friendship concerns, and I share my reflections as a therapist to give you the tips and tools you need to build better bonds. This week, we hear from a listener who wants to make new friends post-university, but as an introvert, they find the prospect of trying to meet new people very daunting. This listener also struggles with fears of rejection and feeling like they are not enough. In her reflections, Emma talks about endings, change, growth, and the importance of allowing ourselves to take the pressure off and get curious about who we are, what we're actually looking for in friendships and what we can offer as a friend. What advice would you give this listener? If you've got a friendship dilemma and you'd like Emma's help, drop us a voicenote on Instagram @friendshiptherapypod!---Friendship Therapy is hosted by Emma Reed Turrell, produced by Chris Sharp and Lauren Brook.--- Social media:  Emma Reed Turrell @emmareedturrellFriendship Therapy @friendshiptherapypodEmail: contact@friendshiptherapypod.co.uk

Have you ever felt like you've grown and healed, but the people around you haven't? In today's episode, I'm joined by my friend and therapist, Dr. Monique Gadson, for a powerful conversation about how to ignite change not only within ourselves but also within the systems we're deeply connected to—whether that's our families, churches, or work environments.

Today's summer rewind is a re-release of one of our favourites that we keep coming back to. We'll be back in September with brand new interviews!Making friends can be intimidating at any age, but it feels especially daunting as adults. As we hit our 30s, our groups of friends are getting smaller and smaller (fun fact: We replace half our friend group every seven years as adults!). Life gets busy, people move away, and milestones come at different times. Even though this seems to be universal, it can still feel like something is wrong with us. If we've learned anything along our adulting journey, it's that friendships are crucial to our mental and physical wellbeing. So this week, we're learning how to prioritize the most underrated of our relationships, how to make new ones, and  why it's so damn hard to maintain friends as an adult. We're not the experts, so we called in Dr. Miriam Kirmayer. Having spent over a decade researching the science of friendship and helping people live more connected lives, Dr. Miriam is a clinical psychologist, writer, speaker, and leading expert on friendship and social connection. She's appeared on some of our favourite media outlets, from Call Her Daddy to Vogue and The New York Times.She sits on the Mental Health Advisory Committee for Wondermind, a media company co-founded by Selena Gomez, and is a member of The GenWell Project, a human connection movement. She also has a private practice and is one of the first and only licensed clinical psychologists to specialize in friendship therapy!Join us as we chat about:Why our friendships dwindle as we ageDr. Miriam's best tips for making new friendsOvercoming the fear of rejectionHow many hours it actually takes to establish a true friendshipHow our attachment styles affect our friendshipsAdapting to new life stages and navigating changing relationshipsWhy one friend can't check every boxHow to prioritize friendships (and why it's good for your health!)Advice on letting go of friendships that have run their courseWe hope this episode helps you feel less alone and inspires you to get back into the friendship market.

Some may surprise you... ________________________ Wise Quotes On The Importance of Social Connectivity "I was blown away really by the strength of the link between social connection and health and wellness. So we've known since the 1970s, that the number of social connections that people have and the quality of those connections can predict longevity and general health across the lifespan. So people who not only have more connections, but also feel really supported and understood by the people around them, do tend to live longer. And that's just been replicated hundreds of times. So the evidence base is really unquestionable, in my opinion. And we know that it at least equals the other lifestyle factors that we take for granted now, things like obesity, or remaining at a healthy weight, how much exercise you do, whether you smoke, whether you drink, whether you take medication for your hypertension - all of those things we accept as being important for our health and longevity. But when you look at the effect sizes, they've been measured in these huge studies, you find that people's social connection is just as important. I found that really surprising just how important it was."   On Meaning  "It was very clear to me that social connections are important, as C .S. Lewis said, for providing meaning in life.  C.S. Lewis claimed that they didn't have any survival value though, that friendship wasn't important for survival. And what this research really showed is that actually, it does give us meaning in our life, but it's also incredibly important just to live a long and healthy life. So, I wanted to try to do my part in raising this awareness and let people know, not just how important that is, but then how they can overcome those psychological barriers to achieve that connection that we all deep down really crave." On Cognitive Biases and Social Connection "So that's one bias.
