Are We Friends Yet? How to Deepen Your Relationships and Create the Community You Need

A practical, heartfelt guide to building the adult friendships you've been craving.

Making and keeping friends as an adult can feel like one of life's greatest unsolved mysteries. Most of us were never taught how to make friends as adults, let alone how to deepen relationships or continue them through life's inevitable changes.

In Are We Friends Yet?, podcast host and speaker Alex Alexander offers a refreshing, honest approach to adult friendships-one rooted in intention, accessibility, and care. You don't need to become someone new or start from scratch. You just need to understand how to show up for others-and let them show up for you.

Drawing from her personal story of creating a chosen family, Alexander shares hard-earned wisdom about building a support system, strengthening relationships, and creating a community where you feel both seen and valued.

In this book, you'll:

• Learn the role of reciprocity in a relationship-and why it matters more than grand gestures.
• Explore approachable strategies for making new friends in everyday life.
• Discover how to strengthen relationships and maintain connections through big transitions.
• Reflect on your needs and desires using built-in "friendship workbook" prompts.
• Find the confidence to begin building the support system you deserve

Whether you're starting over or investing in the friendships you already have, Are We Friends Yet? is a hopeful, grounded road map to the community and connection you've been looking for.
