Healthy friendships are food for the soul. Indeed, the best relationships are rooted in mutual kindness, honesty, and respect. With loneliness at epidemic levels, it's all the more important for us to know how to cultivate loving, healthy friendships.

Dr. Carla is joined by friendship expert Jessica Speer for a warmhearted exploration into loneliness, toxic friendships, and the keys to crafting healthy friendships from childhood and middle school through later life.
