Breaking Up With Friends & Making New Ones, in Midlife


Listen Later

EP 45: In midlife, have you been through a friend break up? Are you trying to figure out if a friendship is worth keeping? Have you been ghosted? Or, have you ghosted someone? We are all ready for the “Friendship Audit”...

Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken, in an open and honest conversation called, Breaking Up With Friends & Making New Ones, in Midlife. My guest, Erin Falconer, is an author, digital entrepreneur and associate psychotherapist. We discuss breaking up with friends and the importance of midlife friendships. Erin teaches us how to evaluate our friendships to truly understand their purpose and how they make us feel. We learn how to confront our friends, strengthen the relationships and how to let some friendships go in a healthy way. Peeps, friends are not a luxury! Anything important in life is worth the hard work and that includes friendships. 

High school is over! Who are you going to surround yourself with at your midlife table? It’s time to say goodbye to the “mean girls” and hello to supportive women.

Some Highlights: 

  • What is a friendship audit?
  • Intentional acts in friendships
  • Why friendships benefit your mental & physical health
  • Deciding when to confront a friend
  • Ghosting is scary, for the ghoster & ghosted!
  • Instagram friends vs. In-person friends
  • Benefits of friendships for couples
  • Friendship is not a luxury! 

Looking forward to connecting with you! Here are some ways to connect with me!
