Ep 140: Friendship DILEMMAS: What Would You Do?

About this episode

The episode explores various dilemmas in friendships, from lighthearted beginnings to serious issues like lending money and crossing boundaries.

After the success of our relationship dilemmas and “this or that” debates, we’re turning the spotlight onto friendships. From the lighthearted moments of the initial friendship to more serious issues years into the friendship like lending money and crossing boundaries, we unpack the messy, morally complicated situations that test loyalty, boundaries, and values.  Along the way, we ask a tougher question: in these moments, are we judging our friends… or revealing what kind of friend we actually are?
