How To Make Friends As An Adult with Jewel Hohman
Manage episode 431200582 series 2610683
On this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast, I’m joined by my guest Jewel Hohman, who’s literally an expert in helping adults learn how to make friends. Jewel is a return guest, and I feel so much joy whenever I get to speak with her. I particularly love her extensive knowledge about something every adult has struggled with at some point: making friends!
Did you know there’s an actual science to making friends? You could call Jewel a friendship scientist of sorts. Pulling from her master’s in social work as well as her coach training, she has studied the science of friendship to a degree that just delights me.
I think you’ll appreciate the insight she shared on the research around our current loneliness epidemic and the jaw-dropping facts about our society at large – like 1 in 5 millennials reporting that they had no close friends. Take a deep breath with that one. I did.
We end up relying so much on our partners for deep emotional support, when really, cultivating meaningful friendships in addition to our partnerships can help all of our relationships become stronger.
Listen in and learn more about:
The science of friendship
3 things every thriving relationship has in common
How to create meaningful relationships
Being a good friend to yourself
