In this episode, Carly is joined by her friend and frequent creative collaborator Yena. They discuss their own friendship evolution and how important the 'Art of the Follow Up' is with new connections. They also explore the complexities of maintaining your identity within relationships, negative friendship dynamics in New York City, and the concept of 'fate surfing' as a way to navigate social connections.

Carly is joined by Ashleigh Carter for the original first episode to discuss moving to New York City with no friends. They dive into why you should never turn down a birthday invitation, being the bouncers of their respective friend groups, and how Ashleigh met her core friends on her apartment rooftop.
