This one gets real, real quick. We dive into the messy, beautiful, and sometimes uncomfortable realities of adult friendships. We talk about how past experiences shape the way we show up, what it means to be a good friend, and how to navigate the space between convenience and intentionality. From reciprocity to trauma bonds, tit-for-tat energy to letting go with love, this episode is a reminder that friendships deserve care too

 On this episode ,our shoutout goes to It's For The Gworls & Lets Get Social Raleigh. They are two social organizations geared towards creating memorable and fun experiences for adults in the Raleigh & Durham area.
