Podcast Episode 96: Using Humor (& your Embarrassing stories) to make friends with Joanne Jarrett
How do we make friends as an adult?
We’ve all had those times when we dreaded going to that “parent meeting” or to a friend’s party, where we only know the host.
Yikes!
It’s so scary to walk into a room where you know pretty much no one. Cue the sweaty palms and stomach ache.
Sound familiar?
But what if- in just a couple of minutes, you knew so much about so many people there? We have the absolute best way to handle those awkward settings and advice on how to stay authentic in your friendships…
share a (kinda) embarrassing story!
In this podcast episode, we chat with Joanne Jarrett, a family physician on her 17th year of maternity leave, host of the Fancy-Free Podcast, and creator of Shelfies, a line of cozy women’s loungewear.
