Quick Hits are 10-minute conversations designed to exercise your brain by letting you listen in on an unscripted conversation to hear other people‘s thoughts on a variety of subjects. In February of 2021 I and the members of my mastermind group thought other people might enjoy listening in on some of the lively conversations we were having. But we realized that no one was going spend 90-minutes listening to us going on about anything and sometimes nothing. Instead, we decided to pick one topic and have a short conversation to share. I took the reigns because facilitating those types of conversations sounded like fun. Over the course of a few months it grew from just members of our mastermind group to four (sometimes three if schedules go sideways) people from various parts of the world and from ”short” to exactly 10-minutes. Thus was born ”Quick Hits” hosted by me, Dr Robyn. I hope to get caught up with posting them here on PodBean at some point. As of this writing, I have over 100 ”episodes.” If you‘d like to see the videos of these conversations, they are available on my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/DrRobynQuickHits If you have a topic you‘d like to hear discussed, I encouraged you to use the contact page of my website: https://drrobynodegaard.com/ to let me know.

As you will hear each of the panelists say, this question seems straightforward when you first read it. But…
When I posed it to Chat GPT it said this:
“Friendship is a relationship between two or more individuals that is characterized by mutual affection, trust, and support. It is a bond that can form between people who share common interests, experiences, or activities, and can also involve shared beliefs and values. Friendships can be a source of emotional support and companionship, and can also provide opportunities for personal growth and learning.”
It is SO much more nuanced than that in reality.
Brandon Mahoney said he doesn’t think he could write a definition for friendship because it would be constantly expanding. More things would have to be added in and explained.
At first glance Camille Diaz thought it might be easy to say a friend is someone who gets you and always has your back. But then you also want someone who is going to give it to you straight maybe give you the love news you need to hear.
Kevin Wash shared that he had a friend who he had lost touch with for 35ish years. They have reconnected since Covid and now talk every Saturday.
There are some people who are friends because your lives are on a similar path now and there are friends who you will be able to call and enjoy them no matter how long it has been.
In the course of this conversation, I realized that there is something about friendship that is reciprocal. I am 100% available and that person for my clients. But I don’t go to them with my stuff. That is what makes it a client relationship.
Similarly, you’ve heard me say on Quick Hits before, if a “friend” calls me with their stuff but isn’t there for me for my stuff, that’s not a friend. That’s an unintended pro bono client.
What is friendship to you? Where is the line?
