Chances are you're feeling lonely. Most
Americans are either unsatisfied with their friendships or feel
super alone in this world. It can be hard to give yourself the
motivation to change that. That's where Jillian Richardson comes
in.

weekly newsletter which features events that New Yorkers can go to
by themselves and leave with a new friend. She’s also the
co-founder of NYC Community Builders and the author of an upcoming
book about the most powerful ways to create belonging. When she’s
not gathering people, Jillian is ghostwriting thought leadership
for CEOs or dancing badly… yet enthusiastically.
