Have you ever felt like you're always the 'better' friend? The one who gives (and gives) without receiving much in return? Or on the flip side, have you ever wondered how you could level up and BE a better friend than you already are?
Author + speaker, Grace Valentine, has been through the lows + highs of friendships, so she knows what it takes to make good friends and to be a good friend. And in our conversation today, we're talking all about How to Find + Be A 'Better Friend' While Pursing Your Purpose.
When it comes to career + purpose, we're talking all about...
- Grace's journey to creating her Brand of Beautiful
- God-given gifts vs. weaknesses that can be made strong
- Purpose + profit (hint: they don't always have to be the same)
When it comes to friendship, we chat through...
- Aristotle's 3 Pilars of Friendship (Pleasure, Convenience, and Goodness)
- Creating community in new places and old places
- Friendship breakups (!!!)
But the sweet spot of our convo is where purpose + friendship are intertwined:
- Encouragement and discouragment from friends as we chase dreams
- How to call your friends UP, not OUT
- Girl-gut vs God-gut
And truthfully, so much more! I hope you love it!
