Gallie + Frey, My friend resume. Want your own?

My friend resume.

Want your own?

  1. Start by asking/listing qualities of friends you get on with. This is your audience/friend pool.
  2. Then, list your friend needs. This is what you need from your friends.
  3. Then, Activities and Interests you have.
  4. Then your friend skills. Generally one or two word statements though “Advocate for the Oppressed” is a four-word phrase.
  5. Finally, list Emotional Work You’ve Done. What have you spent time learning/what hasn’t come easy to you but you’ve mastered it friend-wise?
