Ep 082 | The Hen Commandments, Kate Moss Impressions & The Splits

Do you know what's funny though? Like I think it's true in general friendship groups as well as in business.

Everyone typically has like an assigned role.

I'm pretty devastated that, do you know who was our assigned admin woman? Was the one to go, like now we have to do it.

invoices and reply to emails and stuff which is kind of icky but isn't it funny how in a friendship group there always is that designated person like we have a wee trio me and my friends Jan and Julia and Jan is the one who typically comes up with the ideas like we might be like here I'm free on this date Julia loves lunch like I'm home and we sort of leave it hanging there for Jan to go I'll find us an activity then.

You know, I kind of like wonder what my role in my friendship groups is.

But like this, I don't think anyone

discusses it like you're going to do this.

Yeah.

It just organically happens.

But then it's funny in different, I'm in a couple of different friend groups and in each group I have a different role because of the different personalities in it.

Like in one of my groups I would be, which is quite hard to believe because I'm a fucking boring bastard, but like I would be like the stronger personality.

The

outgoing.

Whereas in other groups I'm like the quiet one.

yeah so it's weird that you take on a different I think it depends on what other people around you doesn't it whether there's loads of big personalities or but then I don't really do well in like big groups either like do you know if I'm on like a big group like night out or holiday or something, it kind of, it overwhelms me.

I can't, because I'm not a very loud person, so I'm like, see if someone else is as loud, just let them be loud.

You start

overthinking when you should speak and what you should be saying.

I hate a big group, I totally agree with you on that one.

No, I

would rather just sit in the corner in a big group, 100%.

And I find it quite intimidating as someone doing, you know, like musical theatre, entering into a new space where there is a big crowd here, maybe already established and a few friendships there.

I probably look ignorant at times because I will just keep to myself rather than trying to infiltrate a big group or trying to be like, hey, hey, I'm the life and soul of the party.

I think I'm also really conscious and used to maybe the same because we do have jobs in the media and in the sort of entertainment space, I suppose.

You don't want to ever seem like you're showing up to a place and being like, and now I'm here.
