Love Lives

The ups and downs of female friendship, with Gemma Styles


Listen Later

This week, Olivia is joined by writer and podcaster Gemma Styles to discuss the complexities surrounding female friendship.


The duo talk about how the pandemic has made them reevaluate some of their friendships, whether you can outgrow certain friends, and how these relationships change in your 20s and 30s.


They also discuss the fetishisation of female friendship groups in popular culture and the pressures this can put on women to form lifelong bonds at a young age.


Finally, they discuss whether or not we should put the same emphasis on friendships that we do on romantic relationships.
