This week, we are reframing friendship — or more specifically, the
friendship fail. To find out how a deep friendship has the potential to
be rehabilitated, we talk with friendship expert Shasta Nelson, who has
been called the Brené Brown of friendship. We talk about reframing
loneliness, qualities every friendship needs, not downplaying our
successes, and so much more. Listen for all the goods — your friendships
will thank you.
Shasta Nelson has been studying friendship, both personally and in
team environments, for 20 years. Her research has been made accessible
for readers in Friendships Don’t Just Happen!, which teaches us how to make new friends as adults, and Frientimacy: How to Deepen Friendships for Lifelong Health and Happiness, which teaches us how to make our closer relationships more meaningful and healthy. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and Harvard Business Review.
