“[Vulchi] repositions friendship as an essential force that has shaped art, history, politics and our lives.” ― Rebecca Traister

Why is friendship so essential to our well-being? Why is it essential to our collective well-being? Priya Vulchi, co-author of Tell Me Who You Are, talks with SheKnows’ Reshma Gopaldas about her new book, Good Friends: Bonds That Change Us and the World. Hear her explore friendship through the lens of classical thinkers, including Plato, Artistotle, and Cicero, and private moments between good friends like James Baldwin and Toni Morrison, and others. Friendship, Vulchi believes, has ripple effects beyond any two people. Discover the multiple ways it can open up new levels of joy and community in your life.
