Description

On today’s episode of Hear Me Out: make the friendship bracelets. Or don’t. 


Like all relationships, friendships can grow, change… and, yes, end. Sometimes for good reason. But we romanticize the BFF as the goal – to find your person – and that might not be realistic. 


Author and podcast host Kristen Meinzer joins us to make the case for not needing a best friend forever.
