In this episode, K+L sit down with Danielle Bayard Jackson, female friendship coach and educator who speaks nationally about the science of women’s platonic connections. Together, the trio uncovers the essential elements that make for deep, meaningful female friendships. 

Embark on a journey through the stages of friendship, from initial infatuation to a more profound acceptance of each other’s differences.

Plus, Danielle reveals the #1 way to build trust among women and reveals the unexpected reason why conflict actually strengthens bonds. 

Danielle also sheds light on social media’s impact on friendships, and how it can perpetuate a culture of exclusion and misunderstanding. If you are striving for more vulnerability and realness in your female friendships, this episode is a must-listen for you and your girl gang!

We also talk about:

  • How to recognize and address imbalances in friendships
  • The importance of maintaining deep connections, especially for women
  • Strategies for improving friendship dynamics
  • The role of platonic intimacy in allowing friends to fully be themselves
  • The cultural shift towards low-maintenance friendships and its implications
  • How traumatic experiences with friends can influence current friendship perceptions
  • The impact of mother-daughter relationships on female friendship dynamics
  • Navigating the transition of friendships during significant life changes like marriage or motherhood
