How to Overcome Doubt in Friendships


Listen Later

In today’s episode of The Great Girlfriends Show, I dive into a topic every girlfriend can relate to: doubt in friendship.

Whether it's a nagging feeling about whether your friend still has your back or questions about the strength of your bond, doubt can sneak in and shake the foundation of even the strongest relationships. Sybil offers practical strategies to help you reflect, communicate, and rebuild trust so that doubt doesn’t define your friendship.

Tune in to learn how to get back to what really matters—strong, meaningful connections with the women you love.


Key Topics:
  • What is doubt in friendship?
  • The importance of checking in with yourself before addressing doubt.
  • How to open the lines of communication with your friend in a healthy way.
  • Why trusting the history you’ve built is key to overcoming doubt.
  • Practical ways to strengthen your friendship after doubt has surfaced.

3 Keys to Overcoming Doubt in Friendship:
  1. Check in with yourself – Is this doubt about something your friend did, or something you're feeling internally?
  2. Open the conversation – Approach your friend with curiosity, not accusation, to get to the heart of the issue.
  3. Trust the history – Don’t let one moment of doubt erase years of trust and connection.

Memorable Quotes:
  • “Doubt is normal. What you do with that doubt is what makes all the difference.” – Sybil Amuti
  • “If you’re feeling doubt, your friend might be feeling it too. Don’t let it linger. Communication is everything.” – Sybil Amuti
  • “Friendships that can’t withstand tough conversations usually aren’t built on solid ground anyway.” – Sybil Amuti
