About this episode

The episode features a conversation with Ashlee Gadd about the importance of friendships in motherhood and how they evolve over time.

In today’s episode, I am so happy to welcome back Ashlee Gadd for an encouraging and practical conversation about friendship in motherhood and showing up for your people. Ashlee is a mother, writer, and founder of Coffee + Crumbs, and she has spent years helping women tell honest, beautiful stories about motherhood. In this episode, we talk about the role friendships play in our lives as moms—and how they naturally shift and evolve through different seasons of parenting, as well as her new book You’re in Good Company: The Gift of Friendship, Motherhood, and Showing Up. We share personal experiences with friendship in early motherhood, busier seasons, and everything in between. Ashlee also offers such a helpful perspective on being intentional in our relationships, including the power of being specific when offering support to a friend. If you’ve been loving these conversations about friendship as an adult like I have, you will love this chat filled with tangible takeaways to try right away.
