The Friendship Audit: Not Everyone Is a Friend, and Not Every Friend Is Forever

Who truly deserves access to your life? We explore the concept of a Friendship Audit and examine the people who occupy space in our circles. Are some friendships meant to last forever, or do some simply complete their assignment and expire? What's the difference between a friendship that has naturally run its course and one that has been neglected? Why do some friendships grow stronger over time while others fall apart when success, change, or personal growth enter the picture? We discuss the rise of the friendienemy. The friend who speaks the language of support but operates from competition and explore whether your spouse should be your best friend. Most importantly, we challenge ourselves to look inward and ask a difficult question: Are we the kind of friend we expect others to be?

Why Do We Support People Who Don't Support Us?

It's a question that reaches far beyond social media. We've all seen it. The friend who constantly puts someone down, yet they're still defended. The boss who never invests in their employees, yet people remain fiercely loyal. The influencer who openly criticizes their own audience yet continues to grow because the very people being criticized keep showing up. In this episode of The Fishbowl with Jade, we're diving deep into the psychology behind loyalty, identity, belonging, validation, and self-respect. Why do people stay attached to relationships, leaders, organizations, and communities that don't seem to have their best interests at heart? Is it hope? Familiarity? Fear of being excluded? The desire to belong? Or are we sometimes more loyal to the idea of a person than the reality of who they are? Join Jade as she explores the social and psychological forces that keep people supporting individuals who may not support them in return. This thought-provoking conversation challenges us to examine our own relationships and ask a difficult question: At what point does loyalty become self-betrayal?

A Case of the Skinny And The Fat: Body Shaming

In The Fishbowl with Jade, we're diving headfirst into one of society's most persistent double standards: body shaming. Too skinny. Too big. Too curvy. Too thin. It seems no matter what someone looks like, somebody always has an opinion. But when did other people's bodies become public discussion? We're exploring how beauty standards have shifted over the decades and why society continues to place unrealistic expectations on people of every shape and size. From childhood bullying and social media criticism to changing trends and cultural perceptions, we're examining why features once mocked are now celebrated, monetized, and even surgically recreated. This conversation isn't about choosing sides between skinny and full-figured. It's about understanding why society often tells people they're not enough, while constantly changing the rules.

I Am Credible: What Makes Someone Credible Today?

In The Fishbowl with Jade, we are discussing how social media has completely changed the way people define credibility? Years ago, credibility seemed simple. Degrees, titles, certifications, formal training, experience and a professional background. Fast forward, social media has created this new world where people are building businesses, platforms, brands, coaching programs, consulting services, and entire careers based on experience, influence, visibility, personality, and results. We’re talking about credibility. What makes somebody credible today? Is experience enough? Does education still matter? And why do people immediately question someone’s legitimacy the moment a degree is missing from the conversation?

You Don't Have to Attend Every Argument You're Invited To.

Some opinions cost people their peace. We’re diving deep into social media chaos, online arguments, emotional discipline, and learning that every disagreement does not deserve your energy. From politics and religion to relationships and viral comment wars. We’re unpacking why people struggle to simply scroll past things they disagree with. When did healthy debates turn into insults, name-calling, and emotional warfare? Why are people labeled “haters” for having different opinions? And how do you protect your peace in a world addicted to outrage, reactions, and online validation? This conversation is not about avoidance, it’s about discernment. Because freedom of speech does not mean every argument deserves your attendance.
