Friendshipable
127: Expectations of friendship, with Emily Cox
We have social expectations for the ending of romantic relationships, but we don't have many for the ending of a friendship.
Join us as we talk with Emily Cox about the role of our social life in our identity and how we develop that, and how common an experience it is for us to struggle with friendship, especially when many of us didn't get many of the tools we need to navigate friend relationships.
Emily Cox is a licensed clinical mental health counselor and licensed clinical addictions specialist offering therapy sessions for children, teens, and young adults in North Carolina and South Carolina. She focuses on supporting children working through big feelings, adolescents navigating transitions, and emerging adults exploring identity; and helping those who feel stuck, misunderstood, or unheard find their voice and use it with confidence.
You can learn more about Emily and her work on her website and on Instagram.

Thank you for listening.
After much reflection, we have made the difficult decision to shut down Project BFF and the podcast. Our last podcast episode aired on August 23, 2024. We are leaving the podcast live on Buzzsprout through the end of 2024.
We are proud of this podcast and honored to have hosted such amazing and engaging guests.
Our hope is that Project BFF and Friendshipable have inspired you to form new friendships, strengthen existing ones, and encourage others to do the same
Thank you for being a part of our story. The two of us have truly deepened our friendship during this time, and we look forward to new and memorable adventures together in and around New England, which serves as the adopted home for both of us.
With gratitude and friendship,
Manya and Terri
