94: The Challenges and Benefits of Friendships

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One topic that has really been top of mind for me lately, especially given the impact that the past year has had on all of us, is the importance of friendships in our lives and the need to not go through life alone. Throughout this pandemic, I’ve had periods of time where I’ve found myself thinking that I felt so lonely, detached and disconnected. That’s why I decided to take stock of the situation and follow some steps to work on this crucial area of my life. Today, I’d like to share some of these steps with you while we explore just how important it is to prioritize these relationships as we go through the many seasons of our lives.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I’ll begin by reviewing some of the challenges we face with friendships, particularly as we get older, differing individual friendship goals, and why it’s important to prioritize friendships. We’ll then look at what exactly you can do with all this information, including some questions to ask yourself, making a commitment to address your friendships, and how my Ascend Mastermind can help. If you’re like me, and you’ve maybe neglected some friendships, need to find new friends, or even get rid of some friends, believe me, this episode is for you.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It also means that Ascend Mastermind is definitely for you as well.
