Summary

Friends! In this episode, we're wrapping up our 4-episode Friendship for Real Women series. Jess, Anna, and Caroline (from Team Go + Tell Gals) are on the podcast together for the first time ever answering all YOUR real questions about friendship. We asked on Instagram and received an overwhelming outpouring of questions, centered mostly around:

How to actually make friends
Balancing input and energy in friendships
Setting and communicating boundaries in friendships
How to have life-giving friendships and how to handle a lack of depth in friendships
Handling hurt, pain, and betrayal in friendships
How to let friendships go when it’s time

If you're a mom with teen kids, a married woman, or a newly graduated single gal - this episode is for you. We're tackling these friendship questions from the perspective of all of these life stages. We hope this real-life insight encourages you wherever you're at in your friendships, and keeps you going when seasons feel difficult. We've so enjoyed digging into this important (but often neglected) conversation within this community. If you haven't already, make sure to listen to our three other Friendship for Real Women episodes! And if you're looking for other women on mission to process with, join our community group on Facebook! Who knows, you might even just make a new friend.

Grateful for you, friends. We're so glad we get to run alongside you as you go and tell the good news.
