Podcast:Man of the Year - Champions of Friendship Published On: Tue Feb 27 2024 Description: Matt and Karo tackle an article about ritualized intimacy. It's not what it sounds like ;) Accountability partners are currently enjoying a rise in popularity because they offer something that is in dwindling supply – ritualised intimacy. According to psychologist Suzy Reading, "there’s a huge element here around social connection and shared experience. Having a buddy you check in with at regular times to share your progress can make such a difference, not just to your goals but to your wellbeing.” So we discuss what the right arrangement is and how it fosters closer friendship. And we take a listener question to know when your accountability partner wants out or if they are just begging for more accountability! Watch this episode on YouTube!
