  • Friendship Isn't Automatic
    2025/03/21

    Friendships don’t just happen—they require care, effort, and intentionality. In this episode, Jason and AC explore what it really takes to build and maintain strong platonic relationships. We discuss the importance of checking in with friends in meaningful ways, engaging in shared experiences, and becoming better listeners.

    Beyond that, we reflect on our own roles in friendships—how we show up for others, how we navigate conflict, and why small gestures of appreciation matter. We also emphasize the balance between deep conversations and lighthearted moments, because strong friendships are built on both connection and fun.

    Whether you're looking to strengthen an old friendship or be more intentional in new ones, this episode offers practical insights on making relationships more meaningful.
