@thefriendshipexpert: One reason why women in their 30s don’t feel as “alive” as they used to: (Well, aside from crushing debt, ongoing burnout, a crumbling democracy, and the perpetual weight of a series of global crises) I’ve worked with women in their 30s for a decade, and I’ve found that if they’re feeling less motivated and energized in their friendships, it’s often because they’re reaching for expired scripts. But goals change. Interests change. Availability changes. Hormones change. And the things that were “fun” before, no longer are. “True fun” has three components, but: • if you’re missing these components • if you’re reserving “fun” for the weekends instead of inviting it into your life each day in spontaneous moments • if you’re trying to do it with people who stress, judge, or misunderstand you You’re going to continue to be dissatisfied. So stop and take a moment to think about what’s ACTUALLY fun to you in your friendships as a woman 30+… and do more of that. TELL ME IN THE COMMENTS: Now that you know the ingredients of “true fun”… when’s the last time you had it? ————- Book: “The Power of Fun” by @catherinepriceofficial ————- Note; All scripts, edits, and captions are A.I-free and 100% powered by my very powerful human brain.

This is why I go to salsa class! It’s with other people; it really doesn’t matter if you make a mistake; when you get a combination right it’s great.

That’s why I like to babysit my nieces and nephews because we get to just be kids and I get to pour into them 🥹

Hannah | Fat / Weddings / Life :
I love this and it really highlights why I enjoy my tap dancing classes. While I started going alone, I feel really connected to my tap ladies and invited them all to my wedding. The vibe is so low pressure, yes we’re learning a dance but there’s no expectation of us being good at it or getting it right. Sometimes new people come and are trying to be impressive and they tend to leave quite fast which is always a relief because they make it feel like there’s judgement/pressure.

Explains why I don’t feel like I’m having fun when searching for new books to read, hobbies to do or games to play. I do them all solo 😭 really lacking the connection on my end

I started bouldering and it hits all of these criteria and literally it is the first time I've felt like I'm having genuine fun since I was in middle school

This is why those random nights you end up unexpectedly out with friends are the best nights. No expectations, just vibes and living in the moment.
