We’re diving into the world of office BFFs, coffee run confidants, and that work bestie who might just be your real bestie… or not. In this episode, we’re talking all about work friendships — why they form so fast, what happens when promotions or quitting throw them for a loop, and how to tell the difference between a forever friend and a proximity pal.
We’ll share real-life stories of friendships that survived (or didn’t) beyond the break room, the messy emotions that can come up, and our best tips for keeping things classy when work drama hits.
Whether you’re a Slack queen, a lunchroom gossip, or just trying to figure out if your office buddy is really your ride-or-die, this episode is for you.
What you'll learn:
-
The psychology behind why work friends feel so intense.
-
How to handle it when your friend gets promoted… or ghosts you after quitting.
-
The do’s and don’ts of navigating work friendships — without calling HR.
-
Tips to keep things supportive, healthy, and genuinely connected.
