Hi besties, when was the last time you made a new friend in the wild? We’ll go first: It’s been a long while for both of us.This episode we're getting honest about community: what it actually means, why it's so much harder to build as an adult, and why some of us would rather homebody than put ourselves out there.Viv spent months at a ceramics studio without saying hi to a single person 👀 Ro shares how motherhood made her retreat inward before she could let anyone back in. We talk about the "great separations" that happen every time life shifts—and a lesson from The Little Prince that reframed everything: you become responsible forever for what you've tamed 🦊If you've been craving deeper connection but don't know where to start, this one's for you 🫂☎️ HUGS HOTLINE: Got a juicy question yourself?
