Friendships: Making them, keeping them and letting them go
About this episode
Angela Davis discusses the challenges of adult friendships and how to build meaningful connections.
Our friendships are some of the most important relationships we have. Friends are the people we celebrate with, lean on during difficult times, and turn to when we need advice or simply someone to listen. But for many people, friendship doesn’t come easily. Maybe you’ve moved to a new city, started a new job or are juggling work and family. Or maybe, you’re rethinking what you want from your social life. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with her guests about why adult friendships can be so challenging, what healthy friendships look like and when it's OK to let a relationship go, and what it takes to build meaningful connections that last.
