The wonderful Amanda Watts joins us for a vulnerable chat about the chemistry of friendship. 
We stray away from our usual focus on climbing and motherhood, to explore the dynamics surrounding platonic relationships. How we value friendship, how we choose who we surround yourself with, and why a friendship that has drifted away can bring so much heartache.

Amanda Watts has a dream to change the narrative around ageing, she returns to the podcast to chat about our beliefs and attitudes to growing older. 
Her experiences as a sports dietitian and ageing athlete shine light on the later stages of life, when we've grown into a fine wine, yet often feel defeated or written off. 
Amanda shares her thoughts on a limiting verse expansive mindset, and some key things you can focus on to support your body as it ages.
