Susan Shapiro Barash will discuss her latest book, Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships are Mended or Ended, an eye-opening investigation/practical guide for women navigating the murky waters of suboptimal friendships.

The book sheds light on the unspoken pain of estrangement—both for the “estranger” who walks away and the “estranged” who is left behind. Amid candid confessions of betrayal and grief, Barash challenges women of all ages to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary.

Join us for a virtual discussion of the book and an eye-opening investigation/practical guide for women navigating the murky waters of suboptimal friendships.
