While there are countless upsides to working from home, there’s one consistent challenge — and it’s a serious one.

“Marie, I’m lonely! The isolation of remote work is wearing on me. How do I get out there and meet new people?”

Whether you’re a super busy entrepreneur or feel shy and introverted, social connections and community are crucial to your well-being. Yet many of us fall short in this department. In fact, social isolation is a growing epidemic.

Since the 1980s, the percentage of American adults who say they’re lonely has doubled from 20% to 40%. The physical, mental and emotional consequences are serious. Some research indicates that loneliness might be as much of health risk as smoking.

But forging new friendships can be hard, especially as an adult. Even more so if you’ve become more comfortable interacting with people online than ‘in real life.’

So what’s the fix? Do we need to memorize a bunch of icebreakers? Practice how to start conversations? What are the exact steps for how to get out there, meet more people and make new friends as an adult — without feeling wildly insecure and awkward?

Thankfully this challenge, like everything else, is 100% figureoutable.

In this episode, you’ll get 3 practical and easy-to-implement strategies to meet new people and make new friends, including a dead simple tactic that practically guarantees people will be interested in you.
