In that case, you can stick with 'Come va la vostra vita?' as I mentioned earlier.

Italians tend to be expressive and sociable, and they often take an interest in each other's personal lives. However, as with any culture, it's always a good idea to be respectful of people's boundaries and personal space. If your friend seems hesitant or uncomfortable sharing details about their life, it's best to politely change the subject or let them know you're there to listen if they need to talk."}]
