E. 1 - Friendship

In this episode, Phyllis and Julie discuss the topic of FRIENDSHIP!  It's a big topic so we don't cover everything but we do get to some deep things.  

SOME DEEP STUFF WE DISCUSS:

1. Holding space for friends: What does that mean?  How do we do it?
2. Advice giving: When is it appropriate?  Is it ever appropriate?
3. The Upstairs and Downstairs part of the brain: How to be a good friend by bringing your friend a blanket when they’re stuck in the basement of their brains.
4. People are sparkly disco balls: How social media can fool us into thinking we are seeing “whole” people.
