Episode 170: The Friend Who Really Sees You

Описание: “This made me think of you.”
Is there anything more delightful to hear from a friend?

Those are the words people often write when sharing one of Hannah Rosenberg’s viral poems on Instagram — poems that somehow capture what we all feel but can’t quite say. And today, Hannah joins me on Dear Nina: Conversations About Friendship to talk about her poetry collection Same, the meaning of feeling seen, and why friendship deserves the same celebration we give to marriage and family.

Hannah reads some of her most-loved friendship poems (yes, there are tears — the good kind), and we talk about connection, vulnerability, and the friendships that quietly save us.

In this episode:
00:00 – Welcome & why Hannah’s poetry resonates
03:30 – The meaning behind “Same” and the viral movement
09:00 – Friendship poems that make us say “me too”
13:00 – Why adult friendship deserves real rituals and recognition
18:00 – Bridging distance and staying close through life changes
22:00 – Comforting vs. dismissing: how to truly make friends feel seen
29:00 – Hannah reads “When I Needed My Friends,” “Group Text,” “Home (for Katie),” and “Marriage of Friends”
