29. How Do I Form Deep Connections With Others? With Kelle Hampton

Good Things from Lemonada - Ein Podcast von Lemonada Media

You’re not weird. Making friends as an adult is just hard. But sometimes all it takes is opening up a little bit. Author Kelle Hampton knew when she wrote her memoir  “Bloom: Finding Beauty in the Unexpected” that she was putting herself out there and revealing the most vulnerable part of her life. When the book came out, she realized her story resonated with more people than she expected. Our shared struggles bring us together both as a community, and one-on-one in our personal relationships. This episode's practice is about sharing your story, forming new friendships, and keeping the ones you already have strong.     Resources from the show Read Kelle’s memoir “Bloom: Finding Beauty in the Unexpected” Read “Friend-ish: Reclaiming Real Friendship in a Culture of Confusion” by Kelly Needham Read “We Should Get Together: The Secret to Cultivating Better Friendships” by Kat Vellos    Do you have a question about grief or other ways you can take care of your mental health?
