How To!: Evolve a Friendship
In part two of our series on friendship, we\u2019re looking at how to revitalize a relationship that began in a previous phase of life.\xa0\n\nMichelle and Blair became fast friends in grad school. That bond survived graduation, marriages, and even a cross-country move. They now live just a short drive from one another\u2014but things have never felt so distant. Michelle wants to know how to evolve their friendship to be more compatible with the present day. On today\u2019s episode, Courtney Martin brings on Rhaina Cohen, author of The Other Significant Others: Reimagining Life with Friendship at the Center. Rhaina will help Michelle\u2014and all of us\u2014prepare for a daunting conversation.\n\nMiss last week\u2019s episode? Learn how to expand your horizons with new, cross-generational friendships.
