Episode Synopsis

What does it really take to have deep, meaningful friendships over time? In this best-of episode, Mona and Jeannette revisit some of the most vulnerable, hilarious, and insightful moments from past conversations about friendship—the joy, the heartbreak, and the unspoken tension in between.From childhood wounds and attachment styles to apology dynamics and growing pains, these clips explore how we navigate closeness, conflict, and connection in platonic relationships. You’ll hear candid stories about drifting apart, learning how to repair, and the hard truths about miscommunication that quietly end so many friendships. Plus, the duo opens up about their own friendship—how a subtle shift before Mona's wedding nearly created distance, and how they worked through it with grace.With reflections on identity, belonging, and what it means to show up for each other—even when it's uncomfortable—this episode is a reminder that real friendship requires honesty, empathy, and a willingness to grow. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.KEY POINTS 7: Why We Struggle to Make (and Keep) Friends5: Strict Parents, Bathroom Lunches, and Judge Judy6: Taryn: Funny is Sexy, Girlhood and Being Miss New York.1: Friendship Fallouts, Swapping Lives, Saying SorryRESOURCES: Keep in touch with Awf The Record:Youtube: @AwfTheRecordInstagram: @awftherecordpodcastTikTok: @AwfTheRecordMona Kosar AbdiIG |  @monakabdi Jeannette ReyesIG |  @msnewsladyKeep in touch with Awf The Record:Watch on Youtube: @AwfTheRecordFollow us on Instagram: @awftherecordpodcastFollow us on TikTok: @AwfTheRecordVisit our website: www.AwfTheRecord.com Follow Mona on TikTok and IGFollow Jeannette on TikTok and IG
