Episode Synopsis


On this episode, I reflect on the conversation that we had with Daniel and Marissa Zheng last episode. In particular I focus on Daniel's encouragement to not take rejection personally when you are building relationships with people. In my reflecting, I share some personal stories of failure and how those failures actually helped me to establish friends in my new city (eventually).  At the very least, I hope that some of these stories make you laugh. Let me know if you can relate!  What out of the box things have you tried to make a friend?  Did it work? As always, I value your feedback and your own personal insights into what community looks like for you.
