Program 152 - Friendship is Personal

Belonging is a tricky concept. While we want to have friends and connections, in the United States we don’t tend to hang out with work friends outside of work events. But because we belong, our friends at work have a positive influence on our work results. Yet there is a shadow too – when conflict pops up with a work friend, as it does in all relationships, the emotional and mental toll can influence our work. Join Jess Dewell and guest Marilyn Shannon to explore ways to embrace and navigate the fact that friendship is personal.
