Quotes:“I think that’s the missing piece here. That radical honesty with our friends.”- Shirin Eskandani

“Sometimes we have the same expectations of all of our friends. And that’s not fair, because not everyone is the same.”- Shirin Eskandani

“I think that’s something we don’t do enough in adult friendships...talking about expectations, talking about how you like to be supported, talking about boundaries...and then expecting that how you like a friend to show up for you, they just know that.”- Chrissy King
