from Wait. What Now? · host Grace, Michelle, Christina

Michelle, Kiki, and Grace unpack the power of friendship — from childhood besties to the different friend groups we collect through every era of life. In this episode, they dive into how being social literally supports your health, why women are wired to connect, and how aging doesn’t have to feel lonely when you do it with people. They also get real about how our mindset around aging shifts our relationships as adults: Who stays, who drifts, and who grows with you. Because at the end of the day… getting older might just be the ultimate group project. Email us at [email protected] & along on Instagram @waitwhatnow_pod
