Description

Do you find that you no longer fit in with many of your friends when you become an entrepreneur?

If so, you’re not alone.

In this episode, I’m sharing my take on this common “friendshift” for web design entrepreneurs and it’s based off a recent newsletter from Web Designer Pro member Alexia (of visualvibedesign.com) who shared a very open and honest take on this topic.

So in this solo episode, it’s narrative as I’ll read you Alexia’s newsletter and follow up with my take as well on things like:

• Why old friendships shift when priorities change
• Belonging in the awkward middle between old circles and new peers
• The value of small, curated communities over giant groups
• Practical steps to find “web besties” and collaborators
• Identity growth, ROI on social time, and protecting focus

And more.
