I often think we think there's something wrong with me or that it shouldn't take this much work. But we could say the same thing for fourth grade.
Ever feel like you're surrounded by people but still lonely? Jillian Richardson, the founder of The Joy List, gets it. She’s on a mission to make New York City, and eventually the world, a friendlier place. In this episode of 'The One You Feed', Eric Zimmer chats with Jillian about her new book, *Unlonely Planet: How Healthy Congregations Can Change the World*. They dive into practical strategies for forming deep connections and overcoming loneliness.
Jillian shares how simple acts, like showing up to events alone but leaving with new friends, can make a huge difference. She discusses barriers to making friendships and offers three tactics to strengthen relationships. Plus, she talks about the fine line between vulnerability and neediness and how searching for the 'perfect' friend can sometimes get in the way of meaningful connections. If you’re looking to build a supportive community and break down social barriers, this episode is a must-listen.
Jillian's insights are not just about making friends but about creating a sense of belonging and support in our lives.
