0 min read

The friendship audit transforms how you think about social life. Instead of hoping friendships happen, you're actively managing your social health.

This isn't about manipulating people or treating friends like projects. It's about being intentional with your limited time and energy to create mutually fulfilling relationships.

Sam, 32, captured this shift perfectly after completing their audit: "I used to feel like friendships were something that happened to me. Now I see them as something I can actively cultivate. It's empowering to realize I'm not stuck with my current social situation."
