In this episode, we talk all about how to make friends in college. Sometimes, this can be challenging, but it is so important to learn how to do this in life! Here are a few ways to make friends:
-join a club or organization
-step outside of your comfort zone
-ask someone to hang out
-volunteer for an event or an organization
-say hi to people in class
-find things you enjoy doing
-be vulnerable
-say yes to things
-engage in shared experiences
-find people in your major
-find people with similar interests or goals
Try one of these this semester, and let me know how it goes. And remember IT TAKES TIME TO BUILD MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS. Keep trying and hang in there

In this episode, we talk about how to prepare for finals.
(1) Write down every final - the class, the date of the final, and the location
(2) Figure out what your grade is currently in the class.
(3) Figure out what you want to get.
(4) Write down what you will do now, until your final, to be and feel prepared.
(5) Find out if your final is cumulative (Chapters 1-15) or the last test (Chapters 11-14).
(6) What are you going to study (think lecture notes, chapters, journal articles, homework assignments, prior test)? How are you going to study (think self-testing strategies to find out if you actually know the material - not memorize)? When and where are you going to study (library, coffee shop, home)?

(7) Use your resources - office hours, tutoring, writing center, help sessions, study with friends

In this episode, I interview a good friend Monika, who recently read the book, When Likes Aren't Enough, A Crash Course in the Science of Happiness, by Tim Bono. We talk about:
- Social Media, and the false sense of connection that can happen, particularly in college
- Comparison
- Being in the present moment, and all the challenges that come along with that
- Reflection
- Gratitude
You will leave this episode with insight and practical suggestions on how to incorporate some of this in your every day life.
