Nobody warned you about this part of getting older.

Have you ever scrolled through your phone contacts and suddenly realised how many people you no longer speak to? In this video, I share a moment that stopped me in my tracks. While looking through my contacts list, I noticed just how many friends I'd lost touch with over the years. Not because of arguments or falling outs, but simply because life happened. When we're young, we're surrounded by friends at school, college, work and nights out. Then careers, relationships, children, responsibilities and everyday life slowly take over. Before you know it, the circle that once felt huge has become surprisingly small. This is an honest conversation about friendship, getting older, and the reality many of us face in middle age. If you've ever wondered where everybody went, you're definitely not alone. Most importantly, if there's someone you've been meaning to contact, send that text, make that call, or arrange that coffee. Life's too short to keep putting it off.
