Dealing With Life's Ups and Downs Is Hard Enough. Making Friends Shouldn't Be!

Unlock the secrets to building deeper connections & genuine, values-based friendships, even outside of a romantic relationship.

It's Hard To Build Meaningful Connections As An Adult...

...especially when you're an independent introvert! If you:

  • Sometimes feel disconnected and alone, even in a crowd
  • Have people you call 'friends,' but quietly crave deeper, easier, more authentic connections in which you feel more valued, supported and understood
  • Would like to take steps towards creating meaningful, values-aligned connections which feel natural, not forced, and that honour your lower-key energy

...then keep reading, because we're creating something special for people just like you (and need your help to do it!)

Introducing 'Friendship Foundations!'

'Friendship Foundations' is a new course from expert friendship coach Hannah Carmichael OBE. Designed to be the 'rule book' on how to 'do' healthy adult friendships, 'Friendship Foundations' will eventually be a comprehensive three step, nine module programme containing the tools you need to create and maintain healthy, meaningful friendships, and to overcome the obstacles that are getting in your way. The first modules are already available, with more being added every month throughout 2025. As a Course Builder, you'll be able to access these straight away, return to them whenever you like, and help us shape what's in them as well. To support your learning, you'll also be able to access regular workshops and discussion groups too.

A Different Kind of Course

You’ve heard of a ‘friendship circle’ – introducing The Friendshift Circle!

When you purchase 'Friendship Foundations,' you'll automatically become part of The Friendshift Circle, a new community of thoughtful, reflective types who are ready to shake off old connections and habits that aren't serving them any more, and to learn how to build supportive, enjoyable, trust-based friendships.

Imagine the Friendshift Circle as a ring of support around your learning experience - it's there when you need it, and when you don't that's fine too. Whether you're looking for accountability, or help putting a tool into practice, if you want to meet some new or if you just want to have a chat and offload about a situation you're dealing with at the moment, we're all here to help each other out.

Whatever your starting point, we don't leave people alone.

I'd like lifetime access!

Praise for Hannah's Other Courses

"Like no other course I’ve seen! Fantastic course, easy to follow bitesize chunks. Like no other course I’ve seen, refreshingly new perspectives & back-to-basics concepts. It has changed my way of thinking towards small talk & making connections in general. Hannah is very knowledgeable & very supportive - thanks again Hannah, keep spreading the word & doing what you’re doing." Jo, 'Beyond The Surface' course participant, summer 2024

"Without wanting to sound cliche, but Hannah's course changed my life! I went from feeling isolated in a new city to having a vibrant social circle in just a few months." Sarah, Trader, London

"As an introvert, I always struggled with making friends. 'Starting Over' gave me the tools and confidence to put myself out there. I'm amazed at the connections I've made!" - Michael, Marketing, Dusseldorf

A Course Specifically Designed For Independent Introverts

Not that we have anything against extroverts (we don't!), but Friendship Foundations is designed with people with introvert tendencies in mind.

We know you're not looking to become a social butterfly overnight!

You value self-reflection and personal growth, want strategic, intentional ways to create friendships that:

  • Complement the freedoms you've found within your solo lifestyle
  • Work in harmony with your emotional bandwidth
  • Respect your preference for quality over quantity in relationships, and your desire for authentic, low pressure interactions
  • Provide genuine support without overwhelming you

You'll work through the course at your own pace, in your own time. You'll access support and community when that makes sense and feels achievable to you. With new modules released each month, there's plenty of time to absorb and And the advice you'll receive will be specifically tailored to you, too.

Let's Go!

How It Works

'Friendship Foundations' and 'The Friendshift Circle' work together to form a complete learning experience.

Each month throughout 2025, we'll release new lessons in 'Friendship Foundations.' You can work through these in your own time, either in a browser or via our on-the-go app, then give us feedback on what you've enjoyed and found useful, and what you want more / less of.

Lessons are grouped into themed modules. Each month throughout 2025, we'll organise community calls, group coaching, workshops and discussion groups around each theme, before moving on to the next one. You can join as many of these as you like, then start over again next year! Themes include:

  • How healthy are your friendships?
  • How do I work out what I want and need from my friendships?
  • How do I find 'my' people?
  • How do I build my confidence in meeting new people?
  • How do I hold clear boundaries and stop people-pleasing?
  • How can I make friends without burning out?

Here's the events schedule for January 2025 as an example of how this all comes together.

Yes please take me to the course!

Praise for Hannah

"I could not praise Hannah any higher. Hannah's personality and down-to-earth, caring nature stood out. She has a real-life view of the world and delivers content in an authentic and empathetic way." Alex Mann, People and Culture Coordinator and former course participant

"I didn't really know what I was looking for when I met Hannah and started working with her. I felt like my life was 'under control' but ultimately something was missing. Despite dozens of friends, I often felt alone and like noone really understood me. I really didn't know what to expect, but can't recommend Hannah highly enough. You literally have nothing to lose." Vincenta Adams, 32, London, Former Coaching Client

“Hannah is the queen of space-holding, compassion, connection and depth. She is able to meet you where you are in life, and honours you and your experience by truly seeing you.” Noelle Johnson, 44, colleague and coaching client (Sydney, Australia)
