Mummy JoJo UNCUT: Time for a Mojo Injection by JoJo Fraser is published by That Guy’s House (£10). To follow JoJo’s blog go to Mummyjojo.com out when something just isn’t right. It’s in our gut. I know I’m lucky to have so many strong females surroundin­g me, to pick me up and give advice when I need it most – but I am acutely aware this isn’t always the case and friendship­s can dissipate quicker than the bubbles in your prosecco. It wasn’t until recently, when a younger school friend passed away suddenly, my group of school girlfriend­s and I each came into our own. Faced with the fact we don’t see each other enough due to our busy schedules and not wanting the last picture we have together to be our final one, we made plans to spend more time together. It is in life’s biggest moments, good or bad, when you rely on your friends. And sometimes there’s nothing better than chatting to your best friend. So whether or not you’re struggling to work out where you fit in or you haven’t spoken to some friends in a while, pick up the phone and arrange a date. Navigating female relationsh­ips may well be a minefield, but they are worth it. jennifer.russell @reachplc.com
