“A good friend will always stab you in the front.”
But what actually makes a good friend? Hopefully, someone who won’t stab you at all!

In this episode of Life Happens* (*but you can too!), Michelle and Nick explore the reality of friendship—one of the most important, and often most misunderstood, relationships in our lives.

Why do we assume friendships should be easy, when they can be some of the hardest relationships to maintain?
How do strong friendships begin?
What keeps them going?
And how do we cope when they change—or end?

With their usual mix of honesty, humour, and psychology, Michelle and Nick unpack the expectations we place on friends and what truly matters in lasting connections.

Plus, take this week’s friendship quiz to discover what kind of friend you are—and compare your results with theirs:

Ever said “it’s fine” when it really wasn’t?

When someone cancels plans.
When a throwaway comment ruins your day.
When something does matter… but you pretend it doesn’t.

In this episode of Life Happens* (but you can too!), Michelle and Nick explore the psychology of micro-rejections — the small moments we downplay that can have a surprisingly big emotional impact.

Why do we minimise what we feel?
What does that do to us over time?
And why is closure so important, even in the smallest interactions?

They unpack how to recognise these patterns, understand your reactions, and respond in a healthier, more self-aware way.

Plus, Michelle shares some big personal news, and there’s a values quiz you can take to better understand what really matters to you:

“Young people today… think they invented sex.”
A line Nick remembers hearing when he was one of the “young people.”

So… are the generations really that different—or just repeating the same arguments?

In this episode of Life Happens*, Michelle and Nick take on generational stereotypes, exploring why different age groups often clash, compete, or even fear each other. Are these differences real—or exaggerated over time?

They also dig into how changing technology, culture, and expectations have made some traditional life skills feel outdated—and whether that’s progress or loss.

Are older generations out of touch… or do they know something we don’t?

Plus, take the fun “Which generation do you belong to?” quiz and compare your results with Michelle and Nick!
