  • When his lack of friends becomes your problem: how the male loneliness epidemic affects women’s friendships
    2026/05/14
    Everyone's talking about the male loneliness epidemic. But after six years of hosting this show and seven years of coaching women through their friendship issues, Danielle has noticed something that doesn't get nearly enough attention: men's friendship struggles don't stay contained. They spill over: into your energy, your guilt, your decisions about who you spend time with, and how much of yourself you actually have left to give your own friends.When men are disconnected from one another, women bear the burden. In this episode, Danielle walks through three specific ways she's seen this play out, both in the research and across hundreds of coaching sessions. You'll also hear directly from 4 different listeners who submitted voice notes about what they're experiencing. She also shares clips from her conversation with researcher Sherrie Xue, whose study on men avoiding "date-like" activities with their male friends went viral for a reason.🎧 BUT WAIT… THERE'S MORE.This week in Office Hours, Danielle shares 2 additional observations backed by the research.Members of Office Hours get supplementary material like this with every episode to deepen their friendships.

    2026/05/07

  • 4 things I no longer believe about friendship (because learning THIS research changed my mind)
    2026/04/30
    You've probably had at least one friendship belief you were sure about… until life proved you wrong. Maybe it was the idea that your two best friends are all you need, or that men just "do friendship better," or that conflict is the beginning of the end. These beliefs feel true until they don't.In this solo episode, Danielle gets personal about the friendship beliefs she once held that have completely shifted since doing this work. She pulls from the research, her own relationships, and nearly a decade of studying women's relational patterns to explain why some of our most popular ideas about friendship are actually keeping us stuck, and what to believe instead.🎧 BUT WAIT… THERE'S MORE.This week in Office Hours, Danielle shares TWO additional friendship beliefs that have evolved for her as a result of doing this work. You'll also get this month's Gathering Kit: a step-by-step activity so you can host your people in a low-cost, low-key way.Members of Office Hours get supplementary material like this with every episode to deepen their friendships.
