What I look for in friendships now

What I look for in friendships now

My circle got smaller, but my peace got louder. In this episode, I open up about outgrowing friendships, overgiving, and what it took for me to stop chasing connections that weren’t being poured into the same way. I share the shift that happened when I started looking at how I was showing up, the moment I realized not everyone values communication and resolution the same, and how that changed what I allow in my life now. I’m also breaking down what I truly look for in a friend today, consistency, honesty with love, real support, mutual effort, and most importantly, peace. If you’ve been questioning your friendships, feeling drained, or learning to protect your energy, this episode is for you.

Why I had trust issues

In this episode, i'm getting real about something I know a lot of us don't talk about enough, trust issues with friendships. From outgrowing people, feeling misunderstood after becoming a mom, to being called fake or too much, when your priorities shift, this episode dives into where those trust issues occurred from. I share my personal experiences with friendships that didn't grow with me, how certain situations changed the way I trust people, and what i've learned about protecting my peace without completely closing myself off. If you've ever felt like your circle got smaller, like you don't open up the same anymore, or like you're still healing from how friendship ended, this one is for you.

Through Their Eyes

Episode 13 hit different. I had a conversation with my daughters that I don’t think we talk about enough… not just guiding them, but listening to them. Hearing how they see me… how I make them feel, it was beautiful, emotional, and honestly a little humbling. Because sometimes we think we’re doing one thing, and they’re experiencing it in their own way. This one is for every parent who’s trying their best 🤍

When your circle shrinks

When your circle gets smaller, everything gets clearer… but what happens when someone else’s stays strong? In this episode, I’m joined by someone who has been part of my life through many seasons. While my circle shifted quickly after becoming a mom, she shares a different experience, one of having a close, consistent circle. This conversation is about growth, friendship, motherhood, and the reality that no two journeys look the same. Because whether your circle shrinks… or stays strong… what matters most is who’s truly there

Breaking Generational Cycles

Breaking the cycles we didn’t choose, but inherited. In this episode, I talk about something many of us are quietly trying to do… break generational cycles. The habits we watched growing up. The patterns we normalized. The beliefs that were passed down long before we were even aware of them. Some things we carry forward with pride. Others… we decide have to stop with us. Today’s conversation is about the awareness it takes to recognize those patterns, the courage it takes to question them, and the responsibility that comes with trying to build something different for the next generation. Because breaking cycles isn’t about blaming the past. It’s about choosing a different future.
