It’s not often that an awkward Zoom conversation can make you feel like you have a friendship with someone that moments before was a stranger.

Nina has a really warm, pleasant vibe. This is a topic that is underserved in the podcast space. It’s great to have a show out there about friendship. Really well produced as well, with good audio quality and editing.

Thanks Nina and Gretchen. This interview made feel like I was there with you. Great summary of how we can be better attuned in our daily lives with others and ourselves.

She may not be a therapist, but sometimes the experiences of other women and moms (including her own mom!) can be extremely helpful and comforting! I recently struggled with some challenges with friendships and this was such a great resource to lean on! Thank you Nina! Highly recommend!

I love listening to Nina’s no nonsense approach to the very real and vexing problems that arise with friends and acquaintances even long into adulthood. We tend to label kids as the ones who need help navigating but the truth is that life is one big friendship journey — and Nina emphasizes that...Read full review »

I love listening to Nina’s guests as well as hearing her own reflections on the many perspectives on friendships. We don’t talk enough about this in our culture and yet it’s one of the few things that make us feel truly connected. So grateful for this podcast!

I’m a 23 years old international student, so making friends in another country is hard. After 4 and a half years in the US, I finally met a great friend that I don’t want to screw up. So I learn things I can do to keep our friendship healthy from Nina’s podcast! Her podcast is great for my...Read full review »

This is consistently a great resource for considering our friendships more deeply and intentionally. Short and to the point episodes that still have lots of nuance and depth. I’ve yet to tire of it!

I am enjoying listening to these episodes. Very relatable topics and interesting. Keep them coming.
Cooking Witch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/21/23
I have found, when I do things that I enjoy, people end up coming to me. After sheltering in place and spike in social anxiety- this is a great episode to reframe “being invited” and feeling alone. Why not be your own cruise director?
KT_S_DZ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/17/23
I’m 38 and still need friendship advice! I listen to this podcast with my 12 year old daughter who also needs friendship advice. One of my favourite podcasts.
omgtsfan via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/31/23
There’s so much I adore about this podcast. Listening makes me happy and always inspired me. Like Nina, I’m a friendship enthusiast and I love the topics she picks and the guests she has on. But I think my favorite part is how each episode feels like a fascinating conversation with a great friend.

If there is a better authority on friendship, I don’t know where! Nina always offers interesting guests and perspectives on relationships. She is concise, articulate, and presents angles I wouldn’t think of. Look forward to her episodes!

I had heard about this podcast many times before I started to listen. To be honest, I was resistant because raising a child with special needs has significantly impacted all of my relationships, including my friendships (in many ways —negative, positive and “just different”). I just didn’t think...Read full review »

I listen to this podcast when I’m doing laundry or other housework, and I always catch myself laughing or learning something new that can be applied in my own life. And best of all, I enjoy doing my laundry now!!!

Nina is a gift for those of us adult women who care so much about our relationships. “When our friendships are going well, our lives are good,” is her expression (loosely!) and this is true in my life and I’m sure many other fans of Nina’s podcast, blog, newsletters and general content.
