Episode 62: Cultivating Close Friendship: Boundaries, Communication, Differences, & Love with Honor Schauland

Holistic Trauma Healing with Lindsey Lockett

This is the second half of my IRL conversation with community organizer and BF Honor Schauland. We're zooming in on our discussion about community to focus on cultivating close friendships. In this episode Honor and I...

• share more about the importance and necessity of community during the Apocalypse (hint: we're already in it!)
• give listeners a glimpse into our own trauma-informed, real-life friendship
• talk about navigating conflict, establishing safety, and moving past our differences
• share why, on paper, our friendship doesn't make much sense
• explain how our shared understanding of trauma has given us the ability to custom-design a close, intimate friendship
• share how we've thrown out the checkboxes of identity when it comes to cultivating close friendships
• explain why shared experiences isn't necessarily the main ingredient in a healthy, thriving relationship
