Episode Synopsis

Episode 16: Homesickness & Finding Your People• Core Hot Take: Homesickness is normal, and finding your people is an active process, not an accident.• Key Lesson: Forced engagement (like attending the involvement fair) creates Social Anchors and a reason to engage with the new life.• Actionable Step: Schedule calls home, but don't let them replace engaging with your new environment. Find a "Third Place" that isn't your dorm or a classroom.• Digital Inferno: Use apps like ZeeMee or MeetYourClass to find classmates. Use apps like Bumble BFF (friends-only mode) or Meetup to connect through shared hobbies.
