In this episode, I dive into the process of how personal growth and healing can change your relationships and friendships. As you evolve and step into your authentic self, your standards for the people in your life naturally rise. This can lead to some friendships evolving, some fading away, and even the need to have tough conversations about boundaries. I share how important it is to recognize your values and how they shape your relationships, and how owning your worth is a vital step in attracting healthier, more aligned connections.

What you'll learn:

• How personal growth leads to higher standards in relationships
• The importance of recognizing your values when evaluating friendships
• Why some friendships may change or fall away as you evolve, and why that’s okay
• How to discern who you should be vulnerable with and who isn’t the right fit for deeper emotional connection
• The importance of self-compassion when navigating changes in your relationships and honoring your personal growth

In this episode, I explore the concept of vulnerability for highly sensitive people (HSPs) and the emotional risks we take when we share parts of ourselves. I discuss how we can approach vulnerability with courage, especially when our openness isn’t met with the response we hoped for. I also share tips on how to discern who is safe to be vulnerable with and how to be compassionate with yourself when things don’t go as planned.

What you'll learn:

• How to embrace vulnerability as a courageous act, even if it doesn’t always receive the desired response.
• The importance of discernment in choosing who to share your vulnerability with and recognizing when someone isn’t the right person for deeper emotional connection.
• Practical ways to check in with yourself before sharing to ensure you are sharing with intention, not out of discomfort or to fill silence.
• How to avoid the cycle of oversharing and protect your emotional energy while still fostering deep connections.
• The value of self-compassion and using moments of vulnerability as opportunities for growth and learning.
