How To Navigate Motherhood and Friendship: a Conversation with Mitzy Days


Listen Later

This is the friendship reality check every woman needs to hear. The moment when you stop taking friendship changes personally and start understanding the beautiful evolution that happens when life shifts. In this conversation, Mitzy Diaz and I break down the truth about how motherhood transforms friendships – and why that's not always a bad thing.

We're covering all the good stuff:

  1. Why becoming a mom during COVID created the perfect storm for friendship challenges
  2. How postpartum depression complicated communication in ways no one talks about
  3. The difference between friendships with strong foundations and those built on convenience
  4. Why some friends will consistently invite you despite schedule changes (and others won't)
  5. How to navigate the guilt of not being the "available" friend anymore
  6. The wisdom in accepting that some friendships serve specific seasons of life
  7. And the beautiful examples of friends who love you through every life transition

This isn't about mourning lost friendships. This is about recognizing which relationships have the foundation to grow stronger, learning to communicate your needs without shame, and understanding that priorities shifting doesn't mean love decreasing.

Mitzy's vulnerability about struggling as an introvert new mom while dealing with friendship changes will validate every feeling you've had about this transition.
