概要
Why does it feel so much harder to make real friends as an adult?
In this episode of Making Space, Angela sits down with digital wellness coach and longtime friend Melissa “Honeybee” Baker to unpack the truth about connection, loneliness, and the hidden forces keeping us disconnected.
From dopamine-driven screen habits to the vulnerability required to ask, “Will you be my friend?” — this conversation goes deeper than surface-level advice.
