In this episode I’m asking: how do we navigate the various dips in our friendships throughout our lives?

Part of the answer is to look for ways to not only make new friends, but also maintain existing friendships.

I will be exploring various approaches to this in the next episode, but before we can look at what we can do, I think it’s important to delve a bit deeper into how we got here.
