A heart-to-heart with my sister Liz, who shares what it was like being bullied as a child, how that experience created lasting, detrimental effects on her ability to make friends, and how she recovered. Plus, the art of giving and how it helps to build trust in friends. We also touch on those godforsaken 'Best Friend' necklaces we all shared with each other as kids--how a sweet little trinket may have actually caused more harm to our psyches than good. Special shout-out to Gary Chapman, author of "The 5 Love Languages : The Secret to Love That Lasts," for providing us a framework within which to navigate much of today's discussion. Tell Me Something Beautiful: If you would like to share a nice thing someone did for you, or a little something about what friendship means to you, please leave us a brief voice memo at our special message link--we'd love to share it on a future episode!
