Marisa G. Franco: How to Make Friends Part 2

May 28 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Join Dr. Marisa G. Franco, a renowned psychologist, professor, and author of the forthcoming book “Platonic: How to Make and Keep Friends as an Adult,” for a two-part virtual workshop series on the science of friendship.

Building on the insights from Part 1, this workshop will focus on overcoming the fear and anxiety often associated with initiating new friendships. Dr. Franco will share fascinating research findings, such as the fact that strangers are open to talking to you 90% of the time. You’ll learn scripts and tricks for starting conversations and discovering the community you’ve always wanted. All proceeds from this event will be donated to the Trans Lifeline.
