In this episode of The Midlife Spin, Christina Cervantes and Kristen Holmes are talking about friendship in midlife, and how your social battery can go from fully charged to completely depleted in record time. They're keeping it a little unhinged and definitely unmuted, because the change needs a better publicist and they're taking the job.
They get honest about how much friendship and socializing have changed in this season of life. From last minute dinner invites and back to back weekend plans to needing days to mentally prepare for a night out, they unpack what it looks like to love your people while also protecting your energy.
Christina and Kristen also talk about low-lift friendships, setting boundaries, emotional capacity, phone overwhelm, apologizing too much, and learning that "I'm tired" is reason enough. Plus, they share the kinds of plans that actually sound good these days, and why midlife friendships can be stronger when they come with more honesty, more grace, and a lot less pressure.
Because sometimes the most honest thing you can say is: I love you, but I need a minute.
