You’ll be fighting for your life financially and someone will add you to a group chat: ZANZIBAR 2024! 🥴😅
Friendships are very expensive, that’s a fact! But does it make you a “bad friend” if you quite literally can’t afford to show up for all your friends events? How do you communicate money matters? Does it change the dynamic?
That’s what we’re getting into with the dynamic duo Jayson and Dushy!
