Dear Nina: Conversations About Friendship
#79 - Moving Every Three Years and Creating Community with Bri McKoy
27 Nov 2023
Bri McKoy is a cookbook author and military wife who has moved seven times in 12 years. She went from burning everything in the kitchen to learning to cook as a way to create community. Have you ever wondered how to make good friends in a new city? Bri has repeatedly accomplished this task with some towns proving harder than others. Bri's husband, Jeremy, has been deployed four times since they were married. Cooking helped Bri make friends while he was gone. She is now the author of a beautiful and helpful cookbook, The Cook's Book, Recipes for Keeps and Essential Techniques to Master Everyday Cooking. I am so inspired by Bri's story. I think you will be too!WE COVERED:the importance of creating a sense of community, even when you know you're moving againwhich cities were harder to make friends than otherscombating loneliness and building relationshipsactionable advice on reaching out to othersnot waiting for invitations learning patience in the kitchen and letting go of perfection as a hostFIND BRI MCKOY:Website, Instagram, YouTubeALL THE DEAR NINA LINKS + CONTACT INFO📢 This week’s fabulous sponsor + how to purchase ad space on Dear Nina📱 Subscribe to my newsletter “Conversations About Friendship” on Substack❤️ Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, the Dear Nina Facebook group📪 Ask an anonymous friendship question🔎 Want to work with me or need another link?
