In this refreshingly real episode of Platonic Lovers, Erin Pash welcomes Monica O’Connell for an honest and layered conversation about the many ways intimacy shows up in our lives—especially through friendship.

Monica shares vulnerable reflections on her partner telling her she’s not his best friend, sparking a broader conversation with Erin about emotional reciprocity, jealousy in relationships, and the expectations we place on both platonic and romantic partners.

From oversharing about human experiences (If you believe that oversharing is a thing…), to navigating what’s appropriate to disclose about your partner, Erin and Monica talk about the value of venting, setting boundaries, and knowing when to just listen. They also unpack the delicate art of “tear and repair” in friendships and how platonic lovers, even with the best intentions, can sometimes get it wrong.

🎧 Tune in for a funny, unfiltered, and heartfelt discussion on redefining what intimacy really means.
