This week​, Annie, Briana, and Derek discuss the science behind friendship and how living in close proximity to good friends impacts your mental and physical health. ​According to numerous multi-generational studies​, it's even ​the key to a longer life.

​W​hat does this mean for those of us who move to ​a​ new country and live ​a​way from our closest friends? As you may imagine, it can have a profound impact - so what can we do about it?

In this episode you'll hear about the ways that Annie and Briana are helping women to find those close friendships in a new environment.​ Derek also has the ladies blind-rank some famous female friends and friend groups, and Annie reveals why she once thought there were no paper towels in Denmark (until she made some friends).

Don’t forget to share this podcast with any friends who have made the move to Denmark.
