About this listen

In this heartfelt episode of The Never Alone Podcast, Iris Fisher Smith is joined by co-host Karen Hearth Whitty and special guest Cindy Kinney, a dear friend whose life reflects the true meaning of friendship.

Together, they explore what it really means to be a true friend in today’s distracted world — from showing up during life’s hardest moments to learning how to listen, communicate, and love with intention. The conversation also highlights the cultural differences between East Coast and West Coast relationships, the importance of presence over busyness, and why meaningful friendships don’t happen by accident — they are cultivated.

This episode is a reminder that we were never meant to do life alone. Real friendship requires effort, patience, honesty, and grace — but the reward is connection, comfort, and strength when we need it most.

Whether you’re feeling lonely, navigating grief, or simply longing for deeper relationships, this episode offers encouragement, wisdom, and hope.
