This episode breaks down what a friendship breakup really is and why it’s barely talked about — even though it can hurt as much (or more) than a romantic breakup. We normalize outgrowing people in your 20s and 30s and remind you: nothing is “wrong” with you for changing.
We dig into:
• how growth shifts who you align with
• signs you’ve outgrown a friendship
• feeling drained, small, or inauthentic after hanging out
We also explore slow fade vs intentional closure, and the unique grief of losing someone who’s still alive…and posting about it. Finally, we talk healing, acceptance, and creating space for friendships that actually fit who you truly are and who you're becoming. Criss cross apple sauce, Fam! It's story time!
