About this listen

 You've probably had at least one friendship belief you were sure about… until life proved you wrong. Maybe it was the idea that your two best friends are all you need, or that men just "do friendship better," or that conflict is the beginning of the end. These beliefs feel true until they don't.In this solo episode, Danielle gets personal about the friendship beliefs she once held that have completely shifted since doing this work. She pulls from the research, her own relationships, and nearly a decade of studying women's relational patterns to explain why some of our most popular ideas about friendship are actually keeping us stuck, and what to believe instead.🎧 BUT WAIT… THERE'S MORE.This week in Office Hours, Danielle shares TWO additional friendship beliefs that have evolved for her as a result of doing this work. You'll also get this month's Gathering Kit: a step-by-step activity so you can host your people in a low-cost, low-key way.Members of Office Hours get supplementary material like this with every episode to deepen their friendships.
