Friendship Reboot: Adulting Doesn’t Mean Going It Alone with Courtney Young

Friendship Reboot: Adulting Doesn’t Mean Going It Alone with Courtney Young

Author: Desiree Simone September 14, 2025 Duration: 48:26

In this episode of Growth on the Rocks, I sit down with Courtney Young—friendship and connections coach and host of The Spritz Girl Mindset Podcast—to talk about what it really takes to reboot your friendships as an adult.

We explore why cultivating authentic relationships is vital for personal growth, how the right compliment can spark a new connection (yes, even in dating), and why your network truly does shape your next level. Courtney shares actionable tips for building confidence, showing up authentically, and keeping your circle strong—even when life gets busy.

If you’ve ever wondered how to find, nurture, or reignite adult friendships, this conversation will remind you: you don’t have to do life alone.
