How do we nurture the friendships we have? How to we make time to see our friends in person? How can technology support long-distance (and not-so-long-distance) friendships? These questions get tricky during the busy years of new motherhood, but they\u2019re important no matter what phase of life you\u2019re in. We\u2019ve talked about friendship in other episodes, but it\u2019s been mostly focused on either making new friends or feeling distanced from friends who aren\u2019t in the same stage of life you are. Episode 78 is all about the daily practice of being a friend to the people already in your life \u2013 near and far.
