The Friendship Formula shows listeners how to create and maintain long-lasting, nurturing and functioning friendships. Friendship is a beautiful thing, but there are lots of difficult times in life where it can be tricky to navigate: when friendship becomes toxic; how to break up with a friend; what to do if a friend 'ghosts' you and surviving friendship betrayal; how motherhood can impact female friendships; friendship grief and how to cope with losing a friend.
