Pants Not Trousers

Jun 19 2021 • 28 mins

As most of us know, it is really hard to get to know new people and put yourself out there. For many, it causes real anxiety, similar to public speaking. Raheel and Areej talk through their social fears and ways they try to overcome them. Socializing and making friends in general comes a bit easier to Raheel and she shares why creating connections with people is and can be a natural thing. Areej relies on natural social networks which can be helpful. Although it would be nice to strike up conversation without an irrational fear of getting a nasty look and that person running fast in the opposite direction!
