Always a pleasure to have someone much younger as a guest especially one who relates friendship to being fiercely loyal, honest, and curious. Strong in faith and strong in friendship...well that's Hali. Enjoy!

Admittedly this was a hard episode to share because it was so special to Miz Mel to reconnect with her long ago friend from Japan. When was the last time you connected with someone far away or from long ago? A short video call can bring back so many special memories. We hope you enjoy the reunion!

What is it like to feel you've always been friends with someone yet you've never really sat down and talked? Paula and Miz Mel only met in passing at camp but the bond was there. So they took time to chat about friendship and test the waters on "speed friending." That's a topic that needs more investigation!
