Busy Philipps Says 'Female Friends Are The Thing That's Gotten Me Through Everything'!

Busy Philipps happily poses alongside Jen Gotch while attending the 2019 Glamour Women Of The Year Summit held at the Alice Tully Hall on Sunday (November 10) in New York City.

the 40-year-old actress sat down with her best friend and founder of Ban.do, Jen Gotch as part of the “My Best Friend, My Best Self” panel where they talked about the secret to finding real, adult friendships.

“If you want to make adult friends, you just DM them on Instagram until they answer you,” Gotch said, jokingly (via Glamour). “I’ve long believed in Internet friendships becoming real-life friendships,” Busy added. “I do think one of the wonderful things about social media is it can help you reach out to people: commenting on people’s photos, finding likeminded people through friends of friends.”

“When you’re younger, a lot of the friendships tend to be out of convenience,” Jen continued. “[But] as I’ve grown up, I’m navigating toward like-minded people. I’m a big proponent in going with your gut on every decision.”

“Supporting friends and showing up for friends, especially when you’re a business owner, is something that’s really important,” Busy Phillipps concluded. “Female friends are the thing that’s gotten me through everything.”
