The Time I Lost a Friend
Sometimes "helping" isn't actually helping.
In this episode, I share the story of a friendship I lost when I stepped into a conflict that wasn't mine to solve. From chasing silence and losing sleep, to realizing I was spiraling in my people-pleasing era, this is the moment I learned the hard truth:
👉 I'm not that powerful. And she's not that helpless.
You'll hear:
Why "fixing" someone else's problem can damage the very relationship you're trying to protect
How over-functioning and codependency sneak into friendships
The obsessive stress and anxiety that come with chasing closure
The hindsight lesson: we weren't actually a good fit — and how wellness helps me see that now
A reminder for when you feel responsible for other people's conflicts
Listen in and see where you might be carrying conversations that don't belong to you.
