Spent Well Podcast

Are you actually a good friend, or just a good hang?In this episode of the Spent Well Podcast, Dan admits something uncomfortable: I'm a diva when it comes to making plans, I don't make the calls, and I've struggled to turn acquaintances into real friends. Katey, on the other hand, has built an incredible crew from scratch, so we talked about exactly how she did it.We get into why "we should hang out sometime" might be the most useless sentence in friendship, how long you can leave a text unanswered, whether your spouse should get veto power over new friends, and how to tell when someone is trying to be your friend. Katey also shares the "grand gesture" that turned a casual basketball buddy into my best friend in Austin, and the questions to ask instead of "How was your day?"If making friends as an adult feels hard, or you've ever worried that you're the bad friend, this one's for you.Thank You to Bodybio for believing in what we're doing and honestly making such an incredible product.
