Скачать или смотреть Adult Friendships: why was it easier in high school?

Making friends as an adult is way harder than anyone prepares you for.

In this episode, Rebecca and Rachel dive into the reality of adult friendships — from the awkwardness of asking someone to hang out, to trying to merge friend groups, to realizing how much proximity used to make friendships easier in school.

They talk about the strange moment when you meet someone amazing at a party but know your paths might never cross again, the insecurities that come with new friendships, and why making friends in your 20s and 30s can sometimes feel harder than dating.

The sisters also discuss how life stages, kids, work schedules, and geography shape friendships — and why meaningful relationships are still one of the most important parts of life.

If you've ever wondered:
• Why adult friendships feel complicated
• How to make friends in a new city
• Why it's hard to merge friend groups
• Or why friendships bring up insecurities
this episode will feel very relatable.

At the end of the day, friendships are messy, complicated, and incredibly important.

And we’re figuring them out just like everyone else.
