Episode Details

Mia is late to the party. Despite “Let Them” being (one of) her Words Of The Year last year, she is finally listening to the Mel Robbins audio book — and she has thoughts.

In this episode, Mia and Amelia unpack the complicated art of female friendships.  From the 'scatterings' of marriage and kids to the isolation of running a business, is the secret to staying connected actually just... loosening your grip?

But, while Mia is feeling a “massive unclenching”, Amelia is asking whether 'let them' is just a fancy way of being a passive friend?

Plus, the '3-Word Rule' that might actually save your friendship.
