Friendship is a simple concept with huge benefits, but it is often overlooked in the chaos and business of modern life. In this episode, I recap my recent trip to Florida where I met Moo’s friends. Moo shares her insights on the importance of friendship in our forties, especially when family lives so far away. But Moo’s mantra is: “there is no friends and family, there is just family.” The people she has spent all these years with, the women she has raised her kids alongside, the friends who have stepped in for help with carpools, sports and big events-- these people are her family too. We end today’s episode with a call to action: instead of spending the holidays worrying about the extra calories, let’s spend the holidays filling our cup with the friends in our lives who mean the most.
