Dr. Kimberly Horn—public health scientist, professor, and author of Friends Matter, For Life—will lead an engaging, interactive talk on the science and soul of reciprocity in friendship: how we give, how we receive, and why it matters.
Recently endorsed by Mel Robbins and featured in Vogue, Cosmopolitan, SELF, and more, her work speaks directly to how we stay connected—even when life (and friendships) get complicated.
Timed with the start of the holiday season—when giving is top of mind 🎁—this session explores one of the most misunderstood aspects of connection: how to show up for others and let them show up for you.
As Dr. Horn notes, not every gift is wrapped with a bow. The most meaningful gifts of friendship often come in everyday forms—quiet gestures, presence, time, and support.
Whether you have ever questioned if you’re giving too much, not enough, or just feeling stretched by the “shoulds” of being a good friend, this talk offers a refreshing perspective.
Attendees will walk away with relatable insights and practical tools to build more balanced, reciprocal friendships—without keeping score or
losing themselves in the process.
Expect real talk, science-backed strategies, and stories that hit home—all in a relaxed, social atmosphere (Two Frays Brewery in Garfield).
