Changing The World, Raising Kids & Making Friends at 40 | Cat Mahon - 769
Recently, I had the pleasure of connecting with Cat Mahon in an unexpected way. Our Facebook paths crossed just prior to my first motorcycle track training day \u2013 a nerve-wracking experience for me. But there was Cat, a fellow enthusiast who I threw the invitation out to come along with me and she grabbed it with both hands. Just like that we were like kids in a sandpit, instantly besties. It got me thinking \u2013 why does making friends seem so much more complicated as we grow older? I remember giving up biking 11 years ago, feeling isolated without any rider friends, never considering the simple solution of nabbing myself some new shared interest friends.
\nOur conversation, initially about the challenges of adult friendships, naturally flowed into deeper territories of Cat's life. I learned about her journey through parenthood, and then something more somber. Cat had been a witness to a tragic, fatal incident \u2013 a coward punch attack that left an indelible mark on her. This experience catalysed her involvement with the Pat Cronin Foundation, a testament to how such moments can redefine our paths.
\nNew friends are great, get out there and keep making them!
