Becoming Friends
by Connie Yang
Interviews with people about friendship - what they're like as a friend, how they make new ones, keep up with old ones, and any unique perspectives they might have. I think if we could all be little more intentional and thoughtful about friends, the world would be a better place. I’m excited to share the stories, the laughter, and the lessons that I’ve learned with all of you. Tune in every week for a new episode, available wherever you get your podcasts. I can't wait to become your friend.
