People Don't Understand Friendship

Making friends as an adult isn't easy.

And sometimes, the people we consider friends aren't the ones we can actually count on. In this episode, I'm joined by organizational psychologist and bestselling author Adam Grant to talk about the science of human connection, why friendships change as we get older, and what it really takes to build meaningful relationships. We discuss the three types of friends everyone needs, why you don't have to talk every day to stay close, and how having difficult conversations can actually strengthen your relationships. Adam also shares practical ways to move past small talk, connect with people on a deeper level, and approach conflict with honesty instead of fear.
