Welcome to Heart, Mind & Purpose, the podcast that explores the layers of our relationships, our growth, and the words that shape both. In today’s episode, Dawn unpacks a curious cultural shift: the disappearance of the word acquaintance. From handwritten letters to social media “friends,” from sitcoms to TikTok “besties,” she traces how language and culture have blurred the lines of connection. You’ll hear how COVID accelerated this change, and why reclaiming the clarity of acquaintanceship and friendship matters for the way we live today.
