Whew, this one goes deep! If you've ever felt stuck in a friendship, hit a wall in your relationship, or just craved a real, raw conversation about the messy stuff we all go through… you're in the right place.
In this episode, I’m joined by two of my dearest friends, Tracy Matthews and Anette Oran, and we’re going all in on the real talk, no fluff, no filter. We’re diving into what it really looks like to outgrow friendships, navigate relationship triggers, and heal those unspoken sister wounds. And yep, we’re even talking about the tough stuff, like what to do when your partner isn’t growing with you.
We also open up about abandonment wounds (spoiler alert: we all have them), how we’ve personally worked through them, and the exact communication tools that helped us repair and evolve our most important relationships.
Think of this as your personal girlfriend therapy session...full of truth bombs, vulnerability, and powerful reminders that you’re not alone in the pivot, the reinvention, or the release.
We cover:
Moving on from friendships that no longer align
Relationship triggers and how to recognize them
Communication skills that actually work
What to do when your romantic partner won’t meet you where you are
Reinventing yourself and navigating the in-between
