In this week’s episode Morgan and Stacey dive into the nuances of friendships. 

The sisters kick off the episode with some exciting personal updates. They’re pumped about their upcoming visit to the Annapolis Summer Garden Theater to catch the musical “Big Fish.” They also share their plans for a fun-filled boat day with family, aboard Stacey’s beloved soon to be named boat, “Water Girl.” As summer transitions into fall, they reflect on the importance of maintaining friendships and staying on top of their health.

The heart of the episode delves into the concept of “Diet Coke friends”—those friendships that just aren't the real thing. Morgan and Stacey discuss the emotional investment required to maintain friendships and the guilt that often accompanies feelings of disconnection. They explore the disappointment that comes when friends don’t reciprocate the same level of effort and the natural ebb and flow of friendships over time.

The sisters emphasize that it’s okay for friendships to fade or evolve as we grow. Life is about growth and nurturing relationships that truly fill your cup. They encourage listeners to cherish meaningful connections and remain open to new friendships, while also being okay with letting go of those that no longer serve them.

Tune in for a heartfelt and humorous discussion on the value of genuine friendships and the importance of personal growth.

  • Personal updates: Excitement for “Big Fish” musical and a family boat day.
  • Transitioning from summer to fall and its impact on health and friendships.
  • Understanding “Diet Coke friendships” and the emotional investment in relationships.
