EP: 4 Not being the "fun friend" anymore and the guilt that comes with it...

from Messy Middle By Kay · host Kayleigh Johnston

In this episode, I open up about what it’s felt like to slowly become less social, to be the one who leaves early, skips the party, or says no altogether. I talk about the guilt that comes with not being the “fun friend” anymore and how that version of me no longer fits the life I’m trying to build.From learning to listen to my body and emotions, to choosing quiet nights over chaos, I share the unspoken side of softening, slowing down, and letting go of the pressure to always show up, smile, and drink another shot. This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt like they’re outgrowing old versions of themselves and learning to be okay with that, whilst still making space for the version youre becoming and maybe a couple glasses of wine ;)
