Friendship Breakups: The Subtle Signs It’s Not Working Anymore

Going through a friendship breakup can feel even more confusing than a romantic one. The signs are subtle, the emotions complicated—and the grief? Often overlooked. In this episode, we talk about the quiet unraveling of friendships that once felt like home, and what to do when they no longer feel right.

 

If you’ve been feeling emotionally drained, anxious before seeing someone, or like you have to shrink yourself around a friend, this episode will help you explore whether it’s time to let go. I share my own friendship breakup story, the emotional signs I ignored, and how life transitions—like motherhood, grief, or personal growth—can shift our capacity to connect.

 

This is for you if you’re navigating the pain of losing a friend, wondering what’s changed, and seeking compassionate, real-talk relationship advice—without blame or guilt.

 

🔸 What You’ll Hear:

• Why some friendships fade even when there’s no big fight

• Signs of emotional disconnection and subtle burnout

• The difference between toxic friendships and natural drift

• How capacity, expectations, and identity shifts create change

• Reflective questions to help you let go with love

 

Whether you’re in the middle of a friendship breakup or just starting to question a connection, you’re not alone. This conversation is your permission to honor where you are, and reclaim space for friendships that align with who you are now.
