Pudding wants to talk about something that happens every September. 🐾
Everyone comes back from the summer slightly different.
New experiences. New ideas. Maybe new friends made along the way.
And sometimes the friendships you left in July need a little time to find their new shape in September.
That can feel wobbly.
It can feel like something has changed and you’re not sure yet if there’s still room for you.
Here’s what Pudding knows:
Friendships that matter find their shape again.
They might look slightly different from before. There might be new people in them. The group might have shifted a little.
And the good ones come back.
And sometimes, not always, sometimes, the new shape has even more room than the old one did.
When September friendships feel wobbly, try:
Give it a little time before deciding something is wrong.
Show up - sit down, join in, be present even when it feels uncertain.
Stay open
- the new person in the group might turn out to be someone wonderful.
The shape is still forming. 🐾🫶
