My mission is to help young women everywhere become their BEST SELVES and create their dream life. Self-improvement and self-love transformed my life. It took me from being the shy, insecure, unmotivated girl who was always hurt by men... to being the woman who prioritises herself everyday, achieves the goals on her vision board, takes herself on dates, feels fulfilled when alone, has a newfound confidence AND has power over her dating life. I found my purpose in life after working on myself and I want to help and inspire YOU to do the same.

It’s easier making friends than maintaining them.

[strudelh]

Being ignored and ditched by my friends as a kid, made me a person that thinks I'm a burden to everyone, and that my (same and potential) friends actually hate me. I'm trying to learn how to not think like this, but it's so difficult, it's made me avoid people. And since I'm not in school anymore, not going outside makes my lack of social skills really show lol. It doesn't help that I've always been a quiet person too. I just hope I can eventually become more confident... 😭

Friends who love to party and drink should not be the only friends. Make friends who have different lifestyles and hobbies.

[Gaegys]

I'm mostly misjudged as a "mean girl" since i have a resting bitch face. The fact that I'm socially awkward and tend to accidentally ignore people (bcz Idk how to fcking communicate 💀) also doesn't help the case.
Tbh I'm actually a really kind person and love to meet new people but because of poor communicating skills I'm not able to do so. This video was definitely needed 💗

[juliannaprice]

Something that I’ve needed to learn is that not everyone needs to be your ride or die! It’s good to have a few ride or die friends but it’s okay to have surface friends too. You shouldn’t have really high expectations of people and immediately drop them when they mess up because I used to do that and I had no friends. And you don’t need to have one perfect friend you can have a lot of people who you relate and like for different reasons.

As I was watching the green flags my mind was like "THERE ARE ACTUAL PEOPLE LIKE

[itzmyladyB]

1.-Go out alone & Aproach without hesitation (ask for a opinion, give a compliment)
2.-Clubs, sports, any hobbie u like
3.-Tiktok, Facebook or slide into someone dm's (social media)
4.-Don't be a pleaser to try to MAKE THEM like u, be cool & chill
5.-ASK & LISTEN

i recently started watching your videos after a messy breakup, and i love your content! i’m currently building up myself and my confidence little by little. a literal godsend! thank you so much!

[christel]

Your talk on friendship trauma was so real, thank you for talking about that. I just recently realized that I isolated myself from my best friend because of something that happened with my highschool classmates. I really appreciate your videos 🤍

[luciajorquerarave]

i have just finished your video on toxic friends, and I started following and watching you TODAY. Tomorrow I have a new friend to meet (we meet via online ) and I was just thinking "I wish she had a video on how to make friends as an adult" AND THEN YOU POSTED!!!! YOURE AMAZING!! You anticipated the needs perfectly.

Hope this summary helps😊:
1. making friends can be easy.

2.green flags are positive energy, trust, loyalty, respect, vulnerability, alignment, effort and communication.

3. Set your standards eg what experiences do you want together? Their traits? Shared values? My expectations? My non-negotiables?

4. Be open, loving and trusting to allow the right friendships to come into your life. You are worthy of friendship. How you was treated before (badly) was more to do with that person than you (dont let bad experiences ruin your future).

5. Why do you want to make friends? What can you bring to the table? What kind of friend do you want?

6. Take small steps eg send the text. Build up from there. Stop making excuses as that’s self-sabotaging. Be compassionate & patient with yourself up.

7. Take up a regular hobby/exercise to find like-minded people so you can talk about interests.

8. Could use social media eg tiktok to ask if there’s anyone else out there (but do be careful with strangers).

9. Focus on listening as people love talking about themselves, so ask them questions and compliment them. If they share something, you could too but don’t overshare something you’ll regret.

10. Repeat back to them what they said in your own words. Radiate positivity, be light-hearted & smile. Talk positively about others.

Good luck, im on my own journey too❤

These are things that have taken me YEARS to learn on my own and am still working on. Your channel is an absolute gift.

[matcha]

i have very high expectations and goals for myself, but no one in my friend group does. i’ve been in this same friend group for two years. last year i did not perform good in school and was not involved whatsoever because of them, they made me feel silly for caring about all that. this year, i have been doing what i want but i still let their opinions affect me. they are extremely negative about the things i care about and very bitter. the issue is i don’t know how to find other friends and i am scared to sit alone which is why i still go with them 😭

[aiuneea]

I'm really struggling at making friends and socializing, and your insights have been incredibly helpful. I appreciate the tips and advice you shared, and I'm looking forward to putting them into practice. It can be difficult to put yourself out there and connect with new people, but I'm feeling more confident and motivated after watching your video. Thank you for taking the time to create this resource!

[simrankj]

I didn't even know friendship trauma was a thing till now, thank you💗this video has literally answered so many things about friendship I had on my mind for a while now

[vibess]

She is honestly soooo underrated, she has less videos but all are soo meaningful and useful, thats exactly what we call quality more than quantity

[mu]

watching this makes me realize what an amazing friend group i have. i used to be surrounded by toxic people since literal elementary school days. through the last couple of years the original trio in my class, who were always in their own world kind of like adopted me 😭 now going into my last years of high school, i couldnt be more grateful as they are the most loyal and amazing people i have ever met

[BaconThePigLegacy]

Watching you speak like you do made me feel SO much more confident. I thought a girl in my class was going to be my bestie but she said i was negative and she said she wanted to be with friends that are more energetic and i did so much for her and I went to her if she needed help but she just walked away . She clearly didn't see what i was actually like. I was being kind to her and in return she was just mean to me. Now I feel like i can make a change when i see her again.

[inikasunder]

you are literally that friend and energy I love having in my life... and hanging out with you through your videos has actually helped my mental health, recognising my value, and just appreciating the strengths of positive energy... loving this community ♡
