The secret to making mom friends

We were never meant to parent alone. But for lots of people, parenting young children is a really lonely time. We want to change that!

In this episode, we talk about how to make friends in a meaningful way that goes beyond just sharing your baby’s milestones and saying that everything is "fine". 

Takeaways:

• Treat making parent friends like speed dating. It’s OK if you don’t hit it off with everyone. 
• For us, focusing on a couple of really close friends has been far better than getting to know a large group at a superficial level.
• If you’re looking for friendship, going for a walk or a hike can be a great way to get to know someone
• Just because someone also has a baby, doesn’t mean you have to be friends. Find people whose lifestyle and parenting style resonates with you. 
• The best way to feel included is to include someone else. Be brave and reach out!
