Friendless
Are you paying attention? James Avramenko (writer, poet, teacher) is trying to. Friendless is a podcast about paying attention — to yourself, to the people around you, and to the ideas and conversations that help you make sense of being a person. Some weeks that looks like a practical skills episode on emotional regulation, how to actually listen, or the slow work of knowing yourself better. Some weeks it's an honest conversation with a guest, recorded live at an indie bookstore in Vancouver. An engaging and honest look at connection, intimacy, and self-compassion — minus the wellness-industry bullshit. Fun and safety, Sweet Peas!
