60. The Ebbs and Flows of Life-Long Friendship

Family is great and so is having a life-long romantic partner, but friends do so much of the heavy lifting throughout our lives so who we choose to remain close with means A LOT. That said, people are complex by nature and evolve overtime, so friendships that ebb and flow are just a part of life. In today's episode, Emma chats about the roles friends play in your life, how to navigate shifts in the friendship, when it's time to "break up" with a toxic friend or just let it fizzle, and shares some of her anecdotes about her best friends over the years. There's so much more to be said and studied on female friendships, but this is a good start.
