Dawn Taylor welcomes Jason Tieri, host of Threads Podcast, to the show to dive into why adult friendships are difficult. From childhood trauma blocking adult connections to a lack of properly communicated expectations, Dawn and Jason break down why adult friends are hard to come by.
Jason explains how past abuse and a less than ideal childhood may have contributed to his difficulty making friends as an adult, but he also wonders if men find it more challenging to get deep with each other in addition to trading jokes. And what about that ride or die friend? Does everyone find one?
Dawn and Jason talk about the differences in personalities that make each friendship unique and sometimes uniquely challenging, what it’s like when a friendship breaks down, and the expectations we place on friends. They reveal some truths about what they each want in a friendship and maybe also what they truly need. What do you want in your friendships? And how will you make more? Find out with Dawn and Jason.

I felt like my life had been squandered a little bit in the season of having babies and people needing me. But after working with Dawn, I realize I have the potential for greatness. It was the first time in my life that I realized I actually have the potential to do amazing things.

I had been in therapy since I was 16, over 20 years of going to therapy before I met Dawn. But in 14-15 months of working with her, my brain has essentially rewired itself. How I view my friends, myself, and God has changed. But you have to buy in, and be willing to work through the tough stuff to get to the other side.
I Get It -
Life is Hard!
Like many of my clients, I’ve also felt ugly, useless, and forgotten.
I’ve gone through depression, molestation, and a brain aneurysm.
It took me years to understand what I had gone through and how to use my past to support others in conquering their fears and self talk.
That’s why I’ve condensed what I’ve learned into strategies to help you overcome your own stuff efficiently.
With multiple different certificates, training courses, and a whole lot of courage and stubbornness, I decided that if I could heal myself I could help others heal too.
