213: Performative Friendships

Growth In Progress

We’ve been chatting for 3 hours before this recording, fortunately we literally NEVER run out of things to talk about so enjoy this chaotic episode with returning podcast recommendations, a rogue recommendation, Helli calling out Charlotte’s 2024 Bingo Card and Charlotte’s growing love of Glen Powell (and his dog).

After a recent TikTok went viral about friends not liking each other’s posts on social media, we wanted to have a conversation about performative friendships – what are they? How do you identify them and do they even matter? Social media makes it easier than ever for relationships to be more performative, especially with the changing priorities and pressures of everyone’s lives, but what it really comes down to is how those friendships show up for you in the moments that matter. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this one!
