What Nobody Told Me About Friendship After 40
What if some of the most important friendships of your life are with women you haven't even met yet?
As I get closer to 50, I've been thinking a lot about friendship, especially how the relationships we develop at different stages of our lives bring out different parts of who we are.
In this episode of The Midlife Yogi, I'm sharing the stories of two women who've reminded me just how wonderful friendship can be.
One has known me since my twenties, when we were newly married singing waitresses chasing our dreams. Our monthly conversations have reconnected me with a part of myself I hadn't thought about in years. The other friendship began with a simple invitation to coffee and has become one of my favorite things to look forward to each month.
I'm also sharing something that makes me incredibly happy as a yoga teacher: watching women who met through my online studio develop friendships that continue long after class ends, sometimes even after they've left the studio.
We'll talk about why longtime friendships are so valuable, what makes meeting new people at midlife especially interesting, and why I think we should be just as excited about the friendships ahead of us as the ones we've treasured for decades.
Because at almost 50, I certainly hope I haven't met everyone who's going to make my life wonderful!
And maybe there's someone in your life right now who's just one coffee invitation away from becoming a really good friend.
