E7: Hard Truths: When Friends are Brutally Honest

Girlz Just Wanna Tell Stories

Feb 7 2021 • 32 mins

In every friendship, there are bound to be tough conversations - hard truths that must be faced in order to allow friendships to grow deeper and more meaningful.  When a friend holds up the mirror for you,  it's not always easy to look at the reflection, but often that is exactly what we need to see.   If we see giving and receiving feedback as a gift,  the hard truths aren't so hard after all.   We're sharing stories of how brutal honesty, delivered with love can deepen friendship.

ABOUT US:
J9 and KT are two Gen X’ers who reveal the secrets of a life-long friendship - from the lockers of middle school to high school, college + TWA, first jobs, engagements, marriages, raising children, step-parenting, cross-country moves, divorce, starting over, and finally - life in the empty-nest.

Join these life-long friends as they share how their friendship has ebbed and flowed since they met in 1979 - and all the hilarious stories they've collected along the way. Each episode highlights the value of friendship and offers takeaways to inspire you to reach out to an old friend, make a new friend, or how to be a totally awesome friend and everything that does (and doesn't work) to build real social connections that support well-being, bring you joy and make life better.
