Summary

Episode 273: 17 years is a long time to know someone, let alone stay best friends for that long! But that’s exactly what Nat and her best friend Katy have done—develop a friendship that adapts and grows as they do too. Even though they live in different cities and their lives are taking different paths (Katy has a 1-year-old son and is moving to Hong Kong!), they still put in the work to stay connected in each other's lives, which has been super rewarding for both of them. In this episode, Katy reflects on how much personal growth she’s had since her marriage and the birth of her son and how important it is to really know yourself before you jump into a relationship. Nat and Katy share stories and insights on how they both stay grounded during life’s uncertainties and the benefits of self-care, supportive partners, and their faith. It’s a conversation filled with warmth, laughter, and insights into friendship, career choices, motherhood, and navigating the complexities of adulting.
