About this episode

Childhood friendships are often the most formative of our lives. But they change and evolve as we get older and enter different seasons.  Maureen, Anne and  Amanda have been friends since kindergarten. As adults, their friendships ebbed, and flowed as they went to college,  started careers, fell in love and got married. Amanda even became a pretty famous Hollywood actress. But then the three women found themselves pregnant with their first babies at the same time and it was a life change that brought them closer than ever.  That's when they decided to take their commitment to the next level.  They decided that the three of them would start a business together.  

Today we're talking about how to maintain a lifelong commitment, a lifelong friendship that starts at five years old and then evolves in so many different ways.  And how do you balance that friendship with launching a business together?
