The Friends Who Feed You

from Self-Care*ish AF!® The Podcast

Last episode I talked about the wires. This week we go into one of the most foundational ones: who you are letting into your life and what it is actually costing or feeding you.I am sharing the science behind why the people in your consistent circle are reshaping your brain whether you realize it or not, walking you through the Arthur Brooks research on friendship and happiness that I have been wanting to talk, and giving you the Friend Inventory, a mental sort for your circle that does not require a single hard conversation this week. We also get into trauma bonds in friendship, and what it looks like when you are hiding your wins from the people who are supposed to be your people.This one is going to sit with you. Clear your schedule for the drive home.
