Friendships are one of God’s sweetest gifts, but if we’re honest—they can sometimes feel complicated, disappointing, or even lonely. In this episode, Latika sits down with the amazing Kristen Strong, who has a heart for helping women nurture life-giving friendships and extend that same grace and compassion toward themselves.

Be a better friend to ourselves, with kindness and grace
Show up as a faithful, encouraging friend to others
Remember that while human friends may fail us, Jesus—our truest Friend—never will
You’ll walk away encouraged that you are not the exception when it comes to having meaningful, soul-feeding friendships. You’re meant for connection, and you can cultivate relationships that honor God and bring you joy.
As working moms, we carry so much. And yet, as Kristen reminds us, we don’t have to carry it alone. Whether you’re navigating motherhood, marriage, career, or personal growth—friendship (with others and with Jesus) is part of how God strengthens us for the journey.
Key Empowering Moments:
✨ How to extend grace to yourself in seasons of imbalance
✨ Simple practices to nurture and sustain your friendships
