About this listen

You're lonely.

Not because you're broken. Not because something's wrong with you.

Because you're trying to get all your connection from one person.

Krista Williams built her business with her best friend Lindsay. Stayed married for years. Got divorced. And discovered something that changed everything: her deepest sense of security didn't come from her husband. It came from her friendships.

66% of millennials feel lonely every single day. Not because they're alone: many have partners. They're lonely because they've made one person responsible for all their emotional needs. That's not a relationship. That's a hostage situation.

In this conversation, Adam Lane Smith and Krista Williams break down why friendships matter more than romantic relationships for emotional health, how to conduct a friendship audit, and what happens to your nervous system when you finally let other people in.

This is about building the foundation that makes romance possible.
