Description
I loved this beautiful and honest conversation about friendship with Jennie Allen, bestselling author of Find Your People and founder of IF:Gathering. She shares candidly about a painful season where she felt alone and how she’s learned to lean into deep community, even when it's messy.
If you’ve ever struggled with feeling lonely, misunderstood, or like it’s hard to trust other people, please listen to this episode. There are so many gems in it, including:
1. Our greatest fear in friendship
2. How to say “that hurt” to a friend
3. What prompted Jennie to close off to friendship for a season
4. How she found her way into trusting relationships again
5. The healing power of knowing others & being known by them
