The Complexities of Friendship in Midlife
Manage episode 487806878 series 3585701
In this candid and heartfelt episode of Drinks With the Girls, Karen and Lisa unpack the messy, beautiful, and sometimes painful realities of female friendship in midlife. From fading connections to explosive breakups, they reflect on why friendship hurts in a way romantic relationships often don’t — and how societal conditioning, loyalty, and expectations play into it all.
Whether you're grieving a friendship that once felt unbreakable, learning to set new boundaries, or just wondering why adult friendships feel so hard, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, heard, and a little less alone.
Grab your favorite drink and join us as we dive deep into the emotional rollercoaster of midlife friendships — with honesty, humor, and the kind of raw girl talk that only happens when the drinks are poured and the guards are down. 💔💬✨
