My name is Anna Goldfarb. I write about friendships, relationships and pop psychology for:

• • The New York Times
  • The Atlantic
  • TIME
  • The Washington Post
  • Vox
  • The Cut

My upcoming highly anticipated book, MODERN FRIENDSHIP, will be out in June 2024. I will teach you how to cultivate calm, nourishing friendships. Join the list for book updates here.

Subscribe to my newsletter for periodic updates about my work. I also share things I love (affordable eye primer, artisanal kettle corn, underwire-free bras) and a few things I hate (Zack Braff, oat milk, humidity).

My first book, “Clearly, I Didn’t Think This Through” (Berkley Books, Penguin) is a humor memoir. I talk about guys I’ve dated, impulsive decisions I’ve made, and all the furniture I’ve accidentally broken. If you’re looking for lols, check it out.

I’m based in Philadelphia, where I live with my husband Mike and our three-legged cat, Eleanor.

If you’re looking for a fresh take on relationships, friendships and how to live life (slightly) better, drop me a line.
