What I've learned about friendships as a 24 year old | THE BRUTAL TRUTH

Feeling lonely in your 20s? Losing friendships, outgrowing people, or wondering why you don't have the kind of friendships you once dreamed of? This video is for you. 🤍 In this video, we're having an honest conversation about adult friendships, loneliness, outgrowing people, and learning to accept that not everyone is meant to stay in your life forever. After graduating college, moving back to my hometown, and losing almost all of my friendships, I found myself questioning my relationships and wondering if something was wrong with me. This video is something I wish I had found when I was going through that phase of my life. If you're navigating loneliness in your 20s, struggling with one-sided friendships, missing old friends, or feeling like everyone else has found their people except you, I hope this video makes you feel a little less alone. We'll talk about why friendships change as you grow older, how to let go of people without resentment, why your current social life doesn't define your worth, and how to stay open to finding your people.
