I chat with friendship expert Danielle Jackson to answer all your burning questions about female friendship as an adult. Danielle and I discuss "therapy speak" in friendships and Danielle gives language and suggestions for what to use instead. We talk about why it's difficult to make friends as an adult, pros and cons of a "friend group", unhealthy friendship expectations, the importance of acquaintances, why friendship breakups are popular and the differences between male and female friendships. This is a jam packed episode that you don't want to miss! Be sure to share, rate and review if you like it!

Would love to hear your thoughts after on Instagram @TherapyforWomen. If you think this would help someone you know please share and tag me so I can see and chime in!
