Podcast #85: Build Your Dream Squad: How to Pick Good Friends

Happy Monday and welcome back to Adultescence! This week’s episode begins with a conversation about the TikTok trend about how to not “live for the weekends.” Jess and Laura discuss the ways in which they make their weekdays more fun.

The topic this week is how to develop and build good friendships with amazing people. Jess and Laura talk about why having healthy friendships is so important, and attempt to explain why we tend to keep “bad” friends who aren’t adding any value to our lives. How can we break that habit?

Then, your hosts go through green flags to look for in friends that signal they might be a good match for you in the long term. Making friends is a lifelong process – and we can all work on getting better at it! Adios, toxic pals.
