This episode kicks off the whole month of July, which will cover topics around all kinds of relationships. Joining us today is Chris Constantino, a fellow TCK and staff member of the company (check out his previous episode here!) He’s returned to the podcast to talk about relationships and we take a deep dive into our experiences with friendships as TCK.
As both children of foreign service families, we are familiar with saying goodbye to the friends that we made as we grew up, moving from country to country and having these passing relationships has affected how we view relationships even as adults now. Through this episode we talk about how friendships are tested through time, distance, and how friendships can survive those periods of strain or difficulty. We share our experiences with different kinds of friends and our thoughts on how communication may differ from person to person. We also share how we handle our own friendships and our perspective on friendship dynamics.
As TCKs, we meet so many people but at the same time, we often have to leave those great people and the grief that follows is never easy, but this has helped us learn to appreciate our friendships even more.
At the end of the day, people take care of their relationships in many different ways, some people may talk every day, while others share their heart when you meet up in person, and still, others show how they care through their actions. Relationships are built on the choices you make to nurture them and having confidence in the friendships that you make will help them grow even stronger.
Even the best of friends will go through periods where life gets busy, and communication may not look the same as it used to, but maybe all they need is a message (or meme) from a friend to cheer them up.
Join us as we catch up and talk about what friendship and relationships look like from the eyes of TCKs and how our experiences play a role in the relationships around us.
