![Did you catch my last post on how to make new friends as an adult woman?I’ll be the first to admit, talking to new people can be nerve-wracking, so I came up with a few easy icebreakers to get the conversation started: 🧊"I noticed your [bag/shirt/shoes, etc.]. That's really cute! Where did you get it?"🧊"My child is starting at this school/daycare next week. Where does your child go?"🧊"I've been looking for something new to read. Do you have any recommendations?"🧊"Have you tried any new restaurants or coffee shops in the area lately? I'm always looking for new places to check out."🧊“I’m prioritizing staying healthy right now. What kind of exercise do you do?”🧊“What shows are you loving right now? Mine are [tell them your favorite shows].”🧊“Do you listen to podcasts? Which ones are your favorite?”🧊“Do you have any interesting hobbies?”“Where are you vacationing this summer?”🧊“I’m interested in volunteering, do you have any organizations you can recommend?”Remember, icebreakers are meant to be light conversation starters - a good place to start is to simply introduce yourself, shake hands, and smile. For best results, always try to choose an icebreaker that has some context to the situations you’re in.Finally, it’s 100% normal to feel awkward and you can rest assured that most people feel the same when they’re meeting someone new. Embrace whatever feelings you’re having and just be yourself.#mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #therapist #relationshippodcast #icebreakers](https://inspirecounselingcenter.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
