Your First Step Toward New Connections
Making friends as an adult shouldn’t feel complicated. Drinks With Friends gives you a simple, guided way to meet new people, enjoy meaningful conversation, and feel connected again — all in a warm, low‑pressure environment.
Whether you’re looking for your new best friend or simply an hour out of the house to talk with another adult, you’re welcome here.
How It Works
1. Choose Your Session
We offer small‑group, women‑only meetups held at cozy local establishments in the Des Moines area. Each session runs for three weeks, with one 60‑minute meetup each week.
2. Sign Up
Reserve your spot by selecting the session that works best for your schedule. Groups are intentionally kept small to create comfort and connection.
3. Show Up As You Are
No pressure, no expectations. You’ll be welcomed into a guided conversation designed to help you connect in a way that feels natural and comfortable.
4. Build Real Friendships
Through The Friendship Method™ — our intentional, research‑informed framework — you’ll experience connection that grows week by week.

Come As You Are
Maybe you’re looking for your new best friend. Maybe you’re simply looking for one hour out of the house and a conversation with another adult.
