For many LGBTQ+ people, friendship can become an important source of connection, support, and chosen family. The people who stand beside us through heartbreak, major life changes, and unexpected twists often help us figure out who we are and remind us that we don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.
In this episode, I'm joined by my bestie Sara Solomon to discuss the real-life friendship behind my book Besties in Crime. What started as a way to turn heartbreak and unexpected life changes into comedy became a story about queer friendship, finding independence, and discovering that life doesn't always have to follow the path we once imagined.
