Topic: Finding Your People as an Adult | Modern Friendship & Adult Community
Making friends as an adult looks very different than it did in school or early career — schedules are fuller, routines are set, and chances to meet new people don’t always come naturally. This month’s dinner will explore how friendships evolve over time, what it really takes to build community in adulthood, and the small but meaningful ways we can create deeper connections in our everyday lives. Together, we’ll share stories, reflect on what we value in relationships now, and talk about how to find (and keep) your people in this season of life.
