It turns out mama was right. Again. Friendships change over time; some evolve, while others run their course. We can all agree that the sign of a true friendship is the ability to pick right up where you’ve left off, whether it’s been a week, month, or year(s). 

We can also agree that when friendships end, it can be one of the most challenging transitions we experience in adult life...

Quality friendships are vital for good mental health; it’s that simple.  Research shows that having solid relationships aside from your spouse significantly impacts your mental health. While it may seem tricky at first, making new friends in your 30s and 40s, you are at a slight advantage because, at this point in life, you know what activities bring you joy!

"Imposter Syndrome…” Who doesn’t feel this way at some point? And “isn’t it ironic,” (que Alanis Morsette, lol) that this was first coined in the 70’s amongst high achieving women?! Don’t worry, it’s not a diagnosis, it’s a really yucky feeling that creeps in and sometimes we have over for dinner and drinks as that voice can constantly run through your head. No worries, though, we got ya covered with our tips and the below. Mostly importantly remember, “you got this!”

Jen does a deep dive into the days when her world started to unravel in September 2020. Being a full-time working mom and wife, she thought she was managing her stress well with daily exercise, solid relationships, and having a supportive husband to boot.  Until one day she was smacked upside the head and began to experience panic attacks. Jen details the cycle she suddenly found herself in and how she was finally able to get off the "ferris wheel of hell."
