You expect breakups in dating. You don’t expect them with your best friend. This week, Michelle and Kelsey are talking about one of the most gut-wrenching, confusing, and least talked about experiences: the friendship breakup.

After Kelsey opened up online about losing friends during her weight loss and glow-up journey, so many of you shared your own stories and we knew we had to dive deeper. We’re sharing our personal experiences with growing apart, navigating toxic dynamics, and learning to protect our peace (even when it hurts).

From setting boundaries to realizing someone was never really rooting for you, we get into why losing a friend can cut so deep and how it’s still worth it to choose yourself.
