Summary

Y’all talk to me all the time about how hard it is to make new friends as adults, and I get it. So today, four of my best friends--Jami, Kelley, Ashley, and Jen--join me to talk about how our friendships started, what it looks like to maintain friendships as adults with really busy lives, and what we expect from each other. You’ve met them before on other episodes, but I’ve never had all of these friends here at once, so this was a GOOD TIME. For a full list of all the resources from our Build Your Board experts go to anniefdowns.com/buildyourboard. Be sure to grab your copy of our Build Your Board Guidebook for this series. There are pages to take notes for every episode and questions to walk through and process, so that by the end of the series, you will have a completed resource AND the answer to the question--who is the NEXT voice I need to help me build the life that I want? . . . .
