74. The Power and Complexity of Female Friendships

On today’s episode we discuss female friendships and how they are both amazing and complicated. Today we discuss: Betsy and Kate’s friendship journey and how they maintain balance and honesty (spoiler alert, it’s all about communication!) The differences between men’s friendships and female friendships, and how male friendships are less fragile Is our capacity to trust and open to our our female friendships effected by the relationship we had with our mother? The art of discernment in friendships and how you don’t need permission to say this isn’t healthy or to gently part ways When we outgrow relationships and crave more authenticity and depth in our connections Today Kate champions and honors Anne, Kate’s long-term friend that has been navigating a family illness with grace. Today Betsy champions some of her newest friends, Kelly, Lark and Janet, and the depth of connection they forged in a relatively short period of time.
