Season 2 Episode 01: SHIFT- Understanding ‘Lifeships’ with Andrea Smoak

This week I chatted with Friendship Coach Andrea Smoak, otherwise known as ‘Your girlfriend next door. A Georgia native whose passion is to help others reach their goals and personal potential. Her coined phrase ‘lifeships’, truly resonates with me, and something that I feel many will resonate to as well, as the phrase summarizes her deep understanding of the value and complexity of female relationships, and her ability to identify authentic and genuine connections.  Andrea and I chatted a few times and we laughed alot, as we exchanged our narratives and understandings of female connections in our personal culture, expectations and constructs of female dynamics within society, the role of vulnerability within relationships, and the commonality of loneliness that threads deeply through all of us, especially right now
