This episode is a soul-deep check-in on the friendships that hold you up when life tries to knock you down. In “When Your Circle Becomes Your Lifeline,” LeAnne Dolce, Sheronda Sealey and guest co-host Tony Williams get real about what it truly means to cultivate ride-or-die friendships that go beyond brunch dates and photo ops. This isn’t about looking cute for the ’Gram — this is about having people in your corner who see you, hold space for you, and pour into you when you’re too tired to pour into yourself.
We explore friendship breakups that cut deeper than romantic ones, the emotional labor of unbalanced relationships, and how to stop begging folks to stay who clearly let go a long time ago. You’ll hear raw, unfiltered truth about letting go of expired connections, building your sacred soul circle, and learning to become the kind of friend you truly deserve. Because Sis, your peace is your power — and your circle should reflect that.
Tune in to laugh, reflect, cry a little (maybe), and shout “YES!” at your speaker as we affirm your worthiness for deep, soul-nourishing connection. It’s time to stop surviving and start thriving — together.
