16 - When Should I Call My Friend Out?


Listen Later

Pearl and Jordyn are back this week to give their take on calling your friends out and when to share your opinion on how they are living their lives. 

This week, we start off by celebrating waffles, intuition, and job offers. Then, we dive right in to discuss what it really means when we feel obligated to call our friends out. We discuss how we act when we perceive our friends are sabotaging their success and potential, understanding the motivation behind your friends' life choices, and serving as others' emotional support. We ask ourselves, when does problem solving get in the way of connecting with others? 

For the second part of the episode, we discuss our take on being in friendship with someone when you don't like their romantic partner. What is our responsibility in those friendships and when does safety come into play? We share signs of domestic violence and the stages of change.

Some other questions your hosts explore this week:
1. Are you listening to understand or respond?
2. How much of your interactions with friends are rooted in projections?
