45: Modern Friendship: Meeting People Where They Are

  • Summary

  • Today we discuss our perspectives on friendship, exploring what it means to be a friend and what happens when what we give in a relationship feels out of balance. As we share our own personal  experiences, we’ll talk about ways that each of us can show up as the best version of ourselves for the friends in our lives.
