    Friendship breakups & how to move on

    We often overlook the topic of friendship breakups. While we tend to focus on the ending of romantic relationships, the loss of a close friend can be just as difficult and emotional. Grief is a natural response to any loss, and a friendship breakup is no exception. I discussed when it might be the right time to end a friendship, and the importance of communicating honestly and compassionately.   Moving on from a friendship breakup can be challenging, but it's not impossible. I shared  some personal strategies for coping with the loss and finding closure. Finally, I explored the importance of surrounding yourself with friends who are equal or better than you, and how this can help you grow and thrive.   Whether you've recently experienced a friendship breakup or just want to better understand this often-overlooked topic, this episode has something for you. Tune in to explore the ups and downs of friendship and learn how to navigate the end of a relationship with resilience.
