Choosing Silence: Is It the Best Strategy for Political Tensions?” (J’Leen & Valerie)

Today, Shasta is joined by her two close friends, J’Leen and Valerie, to discuss an interesting situation that occurred within their friend group: they each had assumed that they all shared the same political views as one another, only to recently discover that this was far from the truth! What do they do next? Is it better to avoid political discussions altogether to keep their friendship intact? 

Join Shasta, J’Leen, and Valerie as they explore the complexities of political conversations among friends. They reflect on their personal journeys, challenge assumptions, and emphasize the importance of open dialogue, especially in today’s divided world. Don’t miss this candid discussion in the season finale of Frientimacy!
