Are your friendships healthy? How do you know if a friendship is unhealthy?

God’s heart for us is to have deep friendships, but how do we know if our friendships are healthy and what to do about it if they are not?

I’m so glad Licensed Professional Counselor Shundria Riddick is here because she talks to us about

  • seven ingredients of healthy friendships,
  • what boundaries look like in friendships,
  • and five ways to reconcile a broken friendship
