“In a time of increasing loneliness, this book provides a steady guide, teaching us how to genuinely care for the people in our lives.”
About this Event

New York Times–bestselling author Alex Elle takes the stage to present “The Company We Keep: Friendship, Connection, and Redefining What It Means to Grow Together,” her vulnerable exploration of the friendships that shape us, stretch us, and sometimes wound us.

With her trademark wisdom and storytelling, Alex invites us to not only celebrate but to examine the relationships in our lives, from the friends who matter most to the ones we should re-examine.

This book offers hard-won wisdom on:

  • Recognizing when people-pleasing and self-silencing have become a pattern.
  • Understanding that honesty—while sometimes painful—is a bridge to real intimacy or necessary endings.
  • Letting go of the belief that we earn love by shrinking ourselves.
  • Honor the sacred friendships that restore and heal us.

“The Company We Keep” offers readers permission to evolve in their friendships and reminds us that the people we surround ourselves with are not only mirrors, but key companions on the lifelong journey of healing, self-trust, and belonging. Alex shares her unflinching journey of learning to stop abandoning herself in the name of loyalty, to take ownership of the energy she brought into relationships, and to tell the truth—even when it cost her comfort. “The Company We Keep” is not just about cultivating our most meaningful friendships—it’s about becoming a better friend to ourselves first.
