| 0:00.0 | Welcome to a Black Girl Burnout podcast, Kelly here. |
| 0:13.1 | And we are continuing our beautiful conversation with Danielle Bayard Jackson. |
| 0:18.5 | Honestly, at this point, I just turned into a full-blown fan girl as |
| 0:22.2 | Danielle helps us discuss how we can model vulnerability to our friendships, establish trust, |
| 0:29.1 | and how to fight for and save friendships instead of abandoning them. I'm so excited for you to |
| 0:36.7 | hear more of this conversation and let me know |
| 0:39.1 | your thoughts as you listen to this episode. DM me, tag us in your socials. This is a |
| 0:45.1 | conversation you don't want to miss. Let's jump back in. We are back with Danielle. I am, I cannot tell you how much I just love this conversation. |

| 1:53.2 | our friendships as a space for that. But if we're in that parentified dynamic, your job isn't |
| 1:58.7 | to create intimacy with your children in that way, right? |
| 2:01.3 | Where it's a mutual reciprocal, I give and take. |
| 2:04.5 | So what can you tell us? |
| 2:05.8 | How can we start to cultivate intimacy in our platonic relationships? |
| 2:11.3 | Okay. |
