Long-distance friendships aren’t always easy. In this episode, we check in on our own self-care and dive into what it really takes to stay connected when life pulls you in different directions. From shifting dynamics to making equal effort, we ask the real question are we truly nurturing these friendships, or just holding on to a title?

Special Shoutout:

This week our shoutout goes to Primose Durham Bar & Lounge. We’ve shared so many great moments there, connected with their amazing staff, and love what this Black-owned space has offered us as a group. Big love to Primrose for creating a place that feels like community every time we walk through the door.
