Episode 28 - Friendship that inspires - poolside convo with a best friend: Colleen Stugard
What makes a friendship truly life-changing? In this joyful, semi unfiltered conversation (haha), Julie sits down poolside with her best friend, Colleen—over wine and without worrying too much about perfect sound. They talk about the beauty of finding a friend who feels like a sister. It’s a warm and funny little love letter to friendship, the power of genuine connection and the people who bring more fun—and a little more courage—into our lives. Stay until the end for an unexpected surprise.

Growing up as an Army brat and why moving felt natural
