Are you and your friends invested in your friendships?

If the answer is no, it might be time to take a closer look.

 

In this episode of Someone Gets Me, Dianne A. Allen talks about friendships, relationships, and how to connect and engage with others as neurodivergents. She shares the truth about being friendly, how friendship requires reciprocity and energy investment, and what it means to cultivate kindred connections.

 

Gifted people often outgrow relationships, but our self-connection is what aligns us with people who truly understand and resonate with us.
