Now that you’ve started anchoring yourself in truth, let’s talk about staying connected. Start a “People to Call” List. Even with people surrounding you, college can feel lonely. Making a list now of people you want to stay in touch with—family, friends, mentors—will help you remember you’re not alone.
This list can serve as a lifeline. Not just a reminder of who to call when you need help, but a reason to stay grounded in who you are and where you come from.
Try it! Make a contact list on your phone titled “People to Call.” Add at least five names. Commit to calling or texting someone from that list once a week during your first semester.
