Hello and welcome to Dear Nina, a podcast for people who love discussing the ups and downs of friendship.

You can find all the show notes HERE

SUBSCRIBE ON APPLE PODCASTS, SPOTIFY, OR ANYWHERE YOU LIKE TO LISTEN!

 

I’m Nina Badzin, a writer, editor, teacher, mom of four, and wife. I’m not a therapist or a social worker, I’m just someone with a passion for friendship who offers a practical and compassionate take to anyone who asks for my advice.

You’d think after seven years of answering anonymous friendship questions online that I’d be sick of the topic. I’m not! In fact, I’m more interested than ever about why some friendships work and why some don’t.

On Dear Nina, I’ll be answering letters from anonymous readers and listeners with topics like how to end a friendship, whether texting is enough to sustain a friendship, what to do if your friend is always selling you something, setting boundaries with friends who ask for a lot of favors,  what to do if you’re always the friend who initiates contact first, and lots more.

And I’ll share a Better Friendship Goal of the week.

We’ll chat about making friends, keeping friends, and taking all the drama and confusion out of our adult friendships.
