Introducing The Friendship Experiment:
We're lonelier than ever. Despite being more connected than any generation before us, loneliness is now being called the epidemic of our lifetime. Coupled with the fact that making friends in your 30s is tricky… And the world is telling us AI solves everything, yet research consistently shows that relationships are the single greatest predictor of how long we live and the quality of that life. We are most certainly in a pickle.
We asked ourselves whether we could actually do something about it.
In 1997, psychologist Arthur Aron published a study exploring whether intimacy could be accelerated between strangers using just 36 questions, delivered in three sets of increasing depth. The results were pretty remarkable. We've taken his experiment and tweaked it: what happens when you apply it to female friendship instead of romantic love?
The Friendship Experiment is a three-part mini series where I answer all 36 questions myself, raw and increasingly personal, before opening them up to our community inside our private podcast discussion group. It's an experiment of an experiment, and an exciting new format for the show to explore a deeper two-way street connection between podcast and you, our community.
It's intimate and joyful, and something new :)
Here's what we're exploring:
Why making friends in your 30s feels harder than it used to (and what we can do about it)
The science behind why vulnerability creates connection
My unfiltered answers to the first set of 12 questions like
This one’s for the chicks craving deeper connection, who are tired of surface-level networking, and looking for friendships that feel good for the soul.
