Before you end that friendship... feat. Erin Falconer, psychotherapist and author of "How to Break Up with your Friends" Sep 16, 2022

Show notes

I recently asked 600 women about their friendships. Nearly 30% of those women said that they had a friendships that they were currently considering terminating. If that's the case, we need to spend some time thinking about not only how to do it, but why we're making that choice. To join me in this conversation, Erin Falconer comes to shed some light on the issue. She's a psychotherapist and author of the book "How to Break Up with Your Friends", and I spotlight her in this conversation to just let her drop gems without interruption.
