September 30, 2022 "I'm not like other girls": 4 Reasons Why Some Women Prefer to Be Friends with Men

The goal of this episode is to bridge the divide between "girls' girls" and "guys' girls" in an attempt to alleviate some of the hostility and misunderstanding between these two groups.

September 16, 2022 Before you end that friendship... feat. Erin Falconer, psychotherapist and author of "How to Break Up with your Friends"
I recently asked 600 women about their friendships. Nearly 30% of those women said that they had a friendships that they were currently considering terminating. If that's the case, we need to spend some time thinking about not only how to do it, but why we're making that choice. To join me in this conversation, Erin Falconer comes to shed some light on the issue. She's a psychotherapist and author of the book "How to Break Up with Your Friends", and I spotlight her in this conversation to just let her drop gems without interruption. As always, the full, unedited conversation is available for members of our GROUP CHAT, which you can join at any time by visiting Betterfemalefriendships.com.
