🎙 Episode 5: Friendship Advice for Teens (And Their Parents): How to Deal, Heal, & Know When to Let Go

Friendship can be one of the most joyful—and complicated—parts of growing up. In this episode, Elissa and Maggie (15) dive into the highs, lows, and drama that come with being a friend (and having them) at every age.

They break down:

✅ How we make friends as kids, teens, and adults
✅ What makes a friendship worth keeping—and when it’s time to walk away
✅ Why some friendships fade and others turn toxic
✅ When to talk to your parents about friend drama
✅ The role social media plays in comparison and conflict
✅ Tips for kids (and parents!) on making new friends, especially after big life changes

This mom and daughter keep it honest, insightful, and (as always) a little bit hilarious.

🔹 Takeaways & Challenges:

📌 Kids: Know that not all friendships are forever—and that’s okay.
📌 Parents: You can’t fix everything, but you can be a safe place to land.
📌 Everyone: Good friends make you feel seen, safe, and supported. If it’s more stress than joy… it might be time to let go.
