The Friendship Tour | Make New Friends, Keep Friends, Deeper Relationships, Community, Sisterhood
Do you struggle to make friends or keep friends? Are you longing for community? You're in the right place! On the Friendship Tour, we explore creating and maintaining meaningful connections well into adulthood. I’m Cecelia-wife, mom, and friend. As a military spouse, I've had the pleasure of making new friends in communities around the globe. I started this podcast to connect and reconnect with those friends. Along the way, though, I realized friendship can be complicated! So, let’s explore friendship together with the hope that we can ALL enjoy the community and sisterhood we need and want.

I'm one of those annoying people who thinks spouses should be best friends, and it's entirely my parents' fault. They've been married for 54 years, and are still the best of friends. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, MOM AND DAD!!! I LOVE YOU!!!
Lauren and I love to talk about how we've been friends forever, but we just realized how much help our friendship had along the way. In the early days of our relationship, Lauren's mom, Ms. Edna, taught us how to be friends with one another, and she showed us what healthy adult friendships look like and sound like. Ms. Edna was both a friendship mentor and model, and our friendship is strong today because of the lessons she taught ...
