A lot of us have issues with getting out there and making new friends, or staying consistent with our friendships… but, for some reason, we don’t focus on how this affects our health and well-being. Today’s conversation with Shasta Nelson completely re-shaped how we view friendship – and it’s never seemed more important!

 

Shasta is an expert on friendship and the author of two books, Frientimacy and Friendships Don’t Just Happen!. She’s also the Founder of GirlfriendCircles.com, which you can think of as a gym membership for your friendships.

 

We picked this topic because some of our listeners wanted to hear an episode about friendship – get in touch and join The Wine & Shiners Facebook Group if there’s something YOU want to hear more about.
