Do you find that you no longer fit in with many of your friends when you become an entrepreneur? If so, you’re not alone. In this episode, I’m sharing my take on this common “friendshift” for web design entrepreneurs and it’s based off a recent newsletter from Web Designer Pro member Alexia (of visualvibedesign.com) who shared a very open and honest take on this topic. So in this solo episode, it’s narrative as I’ll read you Alexia’s newsletter and follow up with my take as well on things like:Why old friendships shift when priorities changeBelonging in the awkward middle between old circles and new peersThe value of small, curated communities over giant groupsPractical steps to find “web besties” and collaboratorsIdentity growth, ROI on social time, and protecting focus And more.
