Podcasts about Friendship

This week on the What We Said Podcast, Chelsey opens up about being pregnant and some of the struggles that have come along with it, from feeling sick and exhausted to navigating such a huge life change while still trying to show up for her three boys at home. The girls talk honestly about the parts of pregnancy people don't always prepare you for, how isolating it can feel at times, and the pressure to still “do it all” while your body is constantly changing. We end with a reminder from Jaci that you don't need a perfect patio layout or tablescape to host people this summer. Sometimes the best memories come from simply inviting people over, even when the backyard is only half done.// WHAT WE ARE WEARING/MENTIONING // https://shopmy.us/shop/whatwesaidpodcast SHOP OUR MERCH: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/what-we-said !!!

Jordana spirals over posting her kids on social media, and Dr. Naomi talks her off the ledge while shamelessly lobbying for more niece content. After surviving law school together, one Betch is struggling not to resent the fact that her partner works fewer hours, makes way more money, and somehow still has time to relax. Another listener is convinced she's torched her relationship with her boss after reacting less-than-gracefully to a workplace screw-up. Looking to break her phone-call phobia, one woman asks the hosts for the verbal equivalent of being thrown into the deep end. A boudoir shoot meant to celebrate a hard-earned glow-up takes a nosedive when the makeup artist decides honesty is the best—and most brutal—policy. And finally, a Betch who spent months crafting the perfect baby name is seeing red after a friend lands suspiciously close to her masterpiece. Learn more about your ad choices.

Forgiving those who have wronged us is one of the most challenging things to do in apprenticeship to Jesus. It's tempting to rush into surface-level forgiveness in effort to be a “good Christian.” Yet authentic forgiveness requires that we get into our hearts. Often it includes walking through a process of addressing uncomfortable emotions and relational conflict.  Tune in for this episode of Soul Talks as Bill and Kristi share honestly about a recent conflict that happened in their relationship. You'll learn from their example how prayer, reflection, and patience are valuable dimensions of forgiveness that lead to greater growth and freedom.

Building healthy biblical friendships requires understanding that truth comes from God's Word, not personal opinion or cultural norms. While we should love everyone, not everyone deserves access to our inner circle. True friendship means being friendly first and loving others unconditionally, even when they have nothing to offer. We must guard our hearts by setting wise boundaries, as our closest relationships directly impact our spiritual growth and future direction. The people we surround ourselves with either make us wiser or lead us toward destruction, so we need discernment to choose companions who draw us closer to Christ rather than away from Him.Thank you for joining us at NorthRidge Church!

Friendship in Marriage | Song of Solomon 5:10–16Marriage is more than romance, responsibility, or commitment. At its best, marriage is friendship — the kind of friendship that helps each person become more like Jesus.In this message, Pastor CJ and Nicole Witkoe bring together key themes from the friendship series and apply them to marriage. Looking at Song of Solomon 5:16, where the bride describes her beloved as both “my lover” and “my friend,” this message explores how friendship strengthens marriage through companionship, investment, encouragement, and shared mission.Marriage was designed by God to bring out the best in one another. But because of sin, companionship can become competition. Instead of championing each other, couples can drift into comparison, control, criticism, and distance. This message invites husbands and wives to rediscover what it means to stand side by side, celebrate each other's strengths, walk through grief together, and build the Kingdom as a team.From Genesis 2 to Proverbs 18, from Jesus' circles of intimacy to the example of Priscilla and Aquila, this sermon shows that deep friendship in marriage does not happen by accident. It takes time, attention, reassurance, celebration, mission, and the willingness to keep choosing the person beside you.The goal is not simply to have a better date night. The goal is to build a marriage where your spouse is not just your partner, but your beloved friend.In this message: Why who you are with shapes where you are going  How marriage was designed for side-by-side companionship  Why sin turns companionship into competition  What it means to champion your spouse instead of compete with them  Why deep friendship requires intentional investment  How to celebrate the mountains and grieve in the gardens together  What Priscilla and Aquila teach us about marriage on mission  Why friendship with your spouse points to friendship with God Whether you are married, preparing for marriage, or hoping to grow in your understanding of godly relationships, this message is an invitation to see marriage as a place where love, friendship, discipleship, and mission come together.Scripture: Song of Solomon 5:10–16 Message Title: Friendship in Marriage Speakers: Pastor CJ Witkoe and Nicole Witkoe Core theme: Marriage is about championing the person beside you.

Even though I have friends, I still feel really lonely sometimes, and I know that's a big thing that you guys struggle with as well. You'll write to me, and you'll tell me how lonely you feel, but that you're not sure why or what to do about it. So I dove into the research around friendships and loneliness, and it turns out that there are five specific types of friends that we all need. And if you are missing even one of these friends, your brain is literally wired to feel lonely, no matter how many friends that you might have. So today, we are going to go through all of the 5 friend types, and we're going to get into exactly how to make the friends that you might be missing.

Have you ever felt like no matter how much you achieve, you still can't fully relax, feel safe, or slow down?

We also dive into breathwork, emotional regulation, friendship transitions, and how to recognize when something in your life is no longer aligned.

Longtime NPR co-hosts Audie Cornish and Ari Shapiro are reuniting for a new CNN podcast, “Engagement Party.” Each week, they unpack all the culture stories they're obsessed with and that are generating buzz, from who's still watching “Euphoria” to viral trends like “friction-maxing.” Their conversations are grounded in their decades-long friendship, even when they disagree. Kara, Audie and Ari talk about the stories they're obsessed with right now, the challenges of making a culture podcast when social media is eroding our sense of shared identity, and their transition from live radio to podcasting.

Have you ever felt your heart break watching your daughter come home devastated by friendship drama—and wondered if helping might actually make things worse? In this episode of Power Your Parenting Moms with Teens, Colleen O'Grady sits down with friendship expert and author Shari Gazitt to unpack the emotional world of girl drama, exclusion, group chats, and friendship struggles. Together, they explore why moms often feel pulled into the pain of their daughters' social struggles and how our own teenage experiences can get triggered in the process. Shari shares practical wisdom for supporting girls without rescuing, fixing, or escalating the drama. Shari Gazitt is an international friendship expert, speaker, founder of Teen Wise, and author of Girl Drama Decoded: Empower Your Daughter Through the Ups and Downs of Girl Drama and Friendships. With a background in counseling psychology and over 30 years of experience, she has helped thousands of girls navigate friendship struggles, social anxiety, exclusion, and the emotional ups and downs of growing up. Through coaching, workshops, and her Mom Wise Collective, Shari equips both moms and daughters with tools to build resilience, confidence, and healthier relationships. In this conversation, Colleen and Shari discuss the biggest mistakes moms make when their daughters are hurting—such as becoming overly dramatic, dismissive, or intrusive. They talk about why moms must “stay above the drama” instead of jumping into the trenches with their daughters, how group chats intensify social pain, and why trying to control other girls, parents, or schools often backfires. The episode also dives into emotional resilience, cognitive distortions, boundary setting, role modeling healthy friendships, and the importance of helping girls believe they are strong enough to navigate difficult social situations. One of the most powerful themes throughout the episode is that moms don't need to fix every problem—they need to help strengthen their daughters. Three Takeaways 1. Your daughter needs calm support more than rescue. Validation and listening often help more than immediately fixing the problem. 2. Moms can accidentally intensify girl drama when their own emotions, fears, or past wounds get activated. 3. The goal is not to protect daughters from every hard friendship experience, but to help them build confidence, resilience, boundaries, and healthy relationship skills.

This week, the Mamas are recording from the Happiest Place on Earth!   Right in the middle of the tour - while Melanie stayed on the east coast - Codie and Ashley are joined by their families at Disneyland Resort for a special summer check-in filled with laughter, reflections, and a little bit of Disney magic. From celebrating Asiyah's birthday and debating the best rides to swapping summer plans and parenting updates, this was the family time the Mamas needed.   The Mamas also open up about the bittersweet reality of watching their children grow up. Ashley shares why this summer is all about supporting Amirah as she prepares for college tours and her future beyond home, while Codie reflects on balancing work, rest, and making meaningful memories with her kids.   And because no Mama conversation stays on one topic for long, the episode ends with stories about first crushes, first boyfriends, and the surprisingly sweet qualities their children value in "a crush". It's a joyful, lighthearted reminder that the seasons of motherhood move fast—and every stage deserves to be savored.   Whether you're planning an epic vacation or just trying to make it through summer break, this episode is your reminder to slow down, enjoy your kids, and make the memories while you can. Because one minute you're pushing a stroller... and the next you're planning college tours.

What can a light scarf teach us about shame, identity, recovery, and freedom? In this Pride Month episode of Viral Mindfulness, Alexander Blue Feather shares a treasured audio recording from 01 June 2018 featuring his dear friend, Dr. Jude Theriot. What begins as a playful conversation about a lightweight scarf and grape Hi-Chew candy opens into something much deeper: the hidden shame many men carry around appearing feminine. From growing up queer in Utah and navigating masculinity as a Mormon missionary, to embracing a more gender-expansive identity later in life, Alexander reflects on the lifelong journey of liberating himself from internalized shame. Along the way, he explores Pride Month, women's equality, gender expression, sobriety, spiritual reconstruction, and the power of friendship to help us become more fully ourselves. The episode also includes reflections on the HBO series Euphoria, a powerful quote about recovery and spiritual revolution, updates on summer plans, and a delightful audio appearance from Harvey Pink Feather. Topics include: ‣ Pride Month and LGBTQ+ identity ‣ Gender expansiveness and self-acceptance ‣ Internalized shame and appearing feminine ‣ Recovery, sobriety, and spiritual transformation ‣ Friendship as liberation ‣ Euphoria and the poetry of recovery ‣ Living authentically ‣ Finding something greater than yourself Stay connected with me this Summer at viralmindfulness.com

One thing we see in Scripture is how God invited His people to befriend those who were different from them.

Send us Fan MailIn this week's episode 354 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm talking about social boundaries, over-functioning in friendships, and what happens when relationships quietly become dependent on your emotional labor, effort, and self-abandonment.When I first entered recovery, I thought my relationship struggles were mostly about romantic relationships. What I eventually realized was that many of the same codependent patterns were showing up in my friendships and colleague relationships too.Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:How resentment can act as a diagnostic tool when it comes to boundariesWhat happens when you stop over-functioning and carrying relationships on your backThe difference between being valued as a person versus being valued for the emotional labor you provideWhy healthy relationships require mutuality, reciprocity, and movement toward each other from both peopleThe powerful realization that connection built on self-abandonment is not true connectionI also share personal experiences around always being the one initiating contact, maintaining relationships through anxiety and over-giving, and learning how to have more honest conversations instead of silently carrying resentment.This episode is a reminder that healthy connection is not about maintaining relationships at all costs. It's about learning how to stay connected to yourself while also allowing other people to show up, invest, and choose you too.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

We're here to talk about fishing angles. Are you wading upstream or down? And are you casting upstream or down? What's your preference? Why do you make that decision? When, if ever does it change? And does your casting direction always follow your wading direction?Sometimes, these preferences seem regional, while other times it's specifically about the tactic -- meaning that swinging wet flies, for example, suits a downstream approach best.

1 Samuel 18:1-16Tim Marrero | May 31, 2026

Moses pitched a tent outside the camp called the "Tent of Meeting." There, God would speak to Moses "face to face, as one speaks to a friend." Across scripture—from Adam and Abraham to Jesus' disciples—God desires friendship with His creation. Yet, in our modern culture, we are experiencing a "friendship recession." We must reclaim the depth of friendship, both with one another and with God, moving past the surface-level encounters we have settled for.Key Points1. God Desires True FriendshipGod doesn't speak to Moses as a subordinate, but as a friend. When Jesus arrived, He wasn't known as a political leader or an entrepreneur, but as a "friend of sinners." He told His disciples, "I no longer call you servants... I have called you friends." Discipleship is friendship. Yet, we often reduce this profound invitation to a scheduled 15-minute "quiet time." God is everywhere; He desires a relationship that permeates our daily lives, not just an appointment on a calendar.2. The Friendship RecessionWe spend more time alone than any previous generation. Friendship has been reduced to a social luxury rather than a daily necessity. If we lack the capacity for deep, vulnerable relationships with the people around us, it will inevitably damage our capacity for a deep relationship with God.Stop finding time; make time. You make time for what you value.Stop finding friends; be a friend. If you go out to be a friend—focused on being interested rather than interesting—you will never lack friendship.3. Grateful, But Not Satisfied (Show Me Your Glory)Moses had seen more of God's glory than anyone—the burning bush, the plagues, the parting of the sea. Yet, in Exodus 33, he asks, "Now show me your glory." He was grateful for past encounters, but he was not satisfied.Many Christians are living off a spiritual high from ten years ago. We have become "domesticated tigers," settling for small, scheduled moments instead of hungering for the wild, full presence of God.A true revival happens when God's people band together and declare, "Show us your glory! We will not be satisfied with what the previous generation experienced. Do it again."4. The Ultimate Glory is JesusHow does God answer Moses' request to see His glory? In Matthew 17, at the Transfiguration, Moses finally stands in the Promised Land alongside Jesus. The glory Moses asked to see in Exodus was ultimately revealed in the person of Christ. If we want to show a hungry generation the glory of God, we must stop pointing to ourselves, our cool aesthetics, or our trendy evangelism strategies. Like John the Baptist, we must simply and constantly point to Jesus in every season of our lives.ConclusionGod has invited us into a profound friendship. As we reflect on what God has done in our lives and in our church, let us be deeply grateful, but never satisfied. Let us reject shallow routines and isolation, choosing instead to pursue God with a "greed for His presence," constantly pointing the world to Jesus.Calls to ActionEvaluate Your Friendship with God: Are you treating God like a scheduled appointment or a true friend? Move beyond the 15-minute quiet time and invite Him into your entire day.Be a Friend: This week, actively make time to deepen a relationship. Ask questions, be vulnerable, and focus on being interested in someone else's story.Point to Jesus: In your victories and your defeats, make it your primary goal to point others to the glory of Christ rather than yourself.

Get ready for another unforgettable adventure through fatherhood, fandom, and hilarious life lessons as Charles and Joe roll the dice and let fate decide the path of this episode of Wise_N_Nerdy. The episode opens with the always entertaining Question of the Week: “Which video game world would be the most difficult to survive in for a month?” What begins as a fun hypothetical quickly turns into a survival challenge worthy of gaming legends. The hosts and community throw around brutal worlds and impossible odds, discussing nightmare scenarios from Duke Nukem and the monster-filled chaos of Resident Evil. Between alien invasions, zombie outbreaks, and impossible odds, Charles and Joe debate whether surviving would come down to skill, luck, or simply accepting defeat immediately. As tradition demands, the dice determine the next destination—and naturally they summon a barrage of Bad Dad Jokes, courtesy of Joe's middle child, Bob. Groans echo across the kingdom as joke after joke lands with the perfect blend of cringe, chaos, and dad-approved comedy. The dice roll again and land on the always insightful “Parliament of Papas” segment. This time, the hosts react to a workplace dilemma involving someone who took PTO specifically to enjoy a newly released video game, only to have an entitled coworker pressure them into giving up their day off so she could visit family instead. Charles and Joe unpack expectations around personal time, respecting boundaries, and why rest, hobbies, and recreation are not somehow less valuable simply because they look different from someone else's priorities. Next, fate leads into the reflective “Daddy, Tell Me A Story” segment, where Charles and Joe discuss those unforgettable moments in life when they realized adults don't actually have everything figured out. Through personal stories and honest reflection, they explore how growing up often means discovering that the people you looked up to were simply doing their best. The conversation becomes an unexpectedly meaningful reminder that uncertainty doesn't make someone incapable—it makes them human. The dice continue their journey into the practical “How Do I…?” segment, where the hosts tackle a challenge that becomes surprisingly difficult as life gets busier: How do you make friends as an adult? Charles and Joe explore ways to build meaningful relationships through shared interests, intentional effort, showing up consistently, and creating space for connection. Whether through hobbies, gaming groups, parenting circles, conventions, or simply reaching out first, the discussion offers encouraging advice for anyone trying to expand their community and deepen friendships. Finally, the episode closes with “What Are You Nerding Out About?” Charles shares his excitement over the Netflix adaptation of Devil May Cry, talking about how thoroughly he's enjoying the action, style, and energy of the series. Meanwhile, Joe reflects on quality family time spent introducing his youngest son to Super Mario World—proving once again that some gaming experiences never lose their magic. Joe also talks about completing his first randomizer experience with The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, discovering a fresh new appreciation for a classic adventure through unexpected twists and discoveries. This episode delivers everything Wise_N_Nerdy fans love: gaming discussions, thoughtful conversations, nostalgic stories, practical advice, and enough dad jokes to cause emotional damage. Whether you're here for the fandom, the fatherhood, or the friendship, there's a seat waiting for you. So gather your party, roll the dice, and don't forget to Find your FAMdom.
