Mel Robbins

This is so helpful.

And I can almost feel you as you're listening or watching, nodding along.

I can feel you exhaling and going, okay, I can do this.

And more importantly, I need to do this.

So while we take a quick break and hear a word from our sponsors, I want you to do me a favor.

If someone that you love has been feeling lonely, if they've gone through a major life change, if they've moved, if you've had a friend drifting away and you don't know what to do about it, just take a chance.

Share this episode with them.

Because what you're learning is one text, one phone call, one quick check-in, and a simple link to a podcast episode.

Hey, I've been thinking about you.

It can bring you closer to people, and it can also remind you that there are people in your life that you love, that the relationships that you build are a huge part of what makes your life meaningful, and it starts with you.

Don't go anywhere.

We'll be right back, so stay with me.

Welcome back.

It's your friend Mel Robbins.

Today, you and I are here with Kasley Killam, a Harvard-trained social scientist, and we're talking all about social health and building better friendships and connections as an adult.

Kasley, in your research, was there any connection between how much people are working and how hard adult friendship is?

Yeah.

And then you throw in pets and kids and family and commuting and... And it's like, where is the time?

No, it's okay.

I want you to be connected.
