This week, we’re joined by award-winning journalist and author Poorna Bell to discuss the importance of letting go of one-sided friendships.
We discuss how it can feel daunting when friends’ lives splinter off in different directions, and how to become more selective with your friendships.
We also talk about the importance of writing South Asian stories into popular culture, the myth of finding “the one”, as well as Poorna’s debut novel, 'In Case of Emergency'.
