The reason you struggle with friendships isn't what you think.

Friendships have been one of the biggest mirrors in my life.For years, I felt like I was always the one giving more, constantly disappointed, and wondering why friendships never felt as deep or safe as I wanted them to. It wasn't until I stopped chasing friendships, started doing the inner work, and met people who completely redefined what genuine sisterhood looked like that everything began to change.In this episode, I'm sharing the lessons that transformed the way I experience friendship, from healing old friendship wounds and recognising my own blind spots to learning how to choose the people I allow into my life.✨ Why looking inward changed my friendships more than blaming other people ever did✨ The friendship wounds I didn't realise I was carrying✨ How my counselling course completely changed the way I support my friends✨ Why healthy friendships should feel safe, not like walking on eggshells✨ How I choose my friends and why compatibility matters✨ The importance of boundaries without becoming overly rigid✨ Why different friends can serve different purposes in your life✨ Learning to surrender the timeline of friendship and trust that the right people arrive at the right timeWhether you're struggling to make friends, grieving friendships that ended, or simply wanting deeper and healthier connections, I hope this episode reminds you that friendship starts with understanding yourself.🤍 Journal prompts & show notes:Read the full show notes, access all four reflection questions, and find everything mentioned in this episode here:🔗 https://toallthegirlsoutthere.com/why-you-struggle-with-friendships/Episodes mentioned:Episode with MarisaEpisode with Miss Probett Unconditional Positive Regard, Empathy & CongruenceCreator mentioned:✨ Alexis (Onion friendship analogy)If this episode resonated with you, I'd love if you shared it with someone who might need it too.
