AAPi President Sahra O’Doherty featured in this Body and Soul article exploring why adult friendships now take so much effort to maintain. The piece examines how busyness, decision fatigue, productivity culture and constant digital coordination have squeezed spontaneity out of social lives, making catch-ups feel more like work than connection. Sahra noted that when social plans require excessive negotiating and planning, even enjoyable activities can feel like a chore, contributing to cancellations, social fatigue and the growing appeal of staying home instead.
