Stop Forcing Friendships - Signs You’ve Outgrown Certain Friends

Episode 18

mardi 20 août 2024Duration 26:16

Friendships are supposed to last forever, right? But what happens when the people who once felt like home start feeling like strangers? 

 

In this episode of A Really Good Cry, we dive deep into the bittersweet reality of outgrowing friendships. As we grow and change, so do our needs and desires, and sometimes that means the friendships we’ve held onto for years no longer fit the person we’re becoming.

 

I’ll share my personal journey of recognizing when certain friendships were no longer serving me, and how I navigated the emotional turmoil that comes with letting go. We’ll explore the signs that indicate you might be outgrowing a friend—like when conversations start to feel repetitive or when spending time together leaves you drained rather than energized. But this isn’t just about saying goodbye; it’s about understanding that outgrowing a friendship doesn’t mean failure. Instead, it’s an opportunity for growth, both for you and the other person.

 

If you’ve ever felt guilty about outgrowing a friendship or wondered if you’re the only one going through this, this episode is for you. Tune in as we tackle the challenges of evolving relationships, offer tips on how to handle these transitions with grace, and ultimately remind you that it’s okay to move forward. After all, personal growth sometimes requires leaving old connections behind to make room for new ones.

 

What We Discuss:

  • 00:00 Intro
  • 01:16 Outgrowing friends 
  • 05:44 You’re now in different phases of your life
  • 07:21 Are they your friend or not?
  • 09:40 Why is it difficult to cut ties with people
  • 11:38 Letting go to grow
  • 12:59 Evolving friendships without cutting all ties
  • 15:33 Redefining your friendship
  • 17:28 Understanding the purpose of every connection
  • 19:30 Friendships should be taken seriously
  • 19:58 Knowing who belongs where in your life

Distorted Self Image: Let Go of Negative Self Talk and Create a Positive Relationship With Your Body

Episode 4

mardi 14 mai 2024Duration 28:47

Breathe in positivity, exhale negativity. 

Ever caught yourself looking in the mirror and just feeling, well, not great about what you see? We all have those moments, and they can lead to us being super hard on ourselves.

When we see a distorted image of ourselves, especially about our body and how we look, we tend to become self-critical and resort to negative self-talk. 

Today, we are going to focus on breaking out of that kind of mindset and focusing on giving ourselves so much love. Let's talk about how to get out of this distorted mindset and focus more on self-appreciation. We start by discovering three things we truly love about ourselves and how to be in a space where societal expectations and opinions no longer hold sway over your authenticity.

There is a profound impact in changing the way we talk to ourselves. Positive self-talk isn't just about words; it's about nurturing inner dialogue that ignites joy and self-compassion. 

But it doesn't end with self-love. Compliments are more than words; they're a gift of affirmation that uplifts not just the recipient, but also the giver.

Let's celebrate the magic of being unapologetically ourselves and embrace the beauty we hold within us.

 

What We Discuss:

  • 00:00 Surprise energy work with a stranger
  • 02:20 The 3 things you love about yourself
  • 07:50 It’s so freeing to not just care
  • 10:57 Change how you talk to yourself
  • 12:59 Appreciate your body
  • 15:09 Compliment other people
  • 18:04 Negative relationship with the concept of being skinny
  • 18:42 Take social media breaks
  • 20:02 The truth about comparison
  • 24:40 The clothes for when I…
  • 26:16 You are the soul and not the body

Are You Emotionally Unavailable? How To Control Your Emotions So They Don’t Control You

Episode 2

mardi 30 avril 2024Duration 38:20

When was the last time you cried?

For some, crying can be seen as a sign of weakness or vulnerability. Society often teaches us that showing our feelings, especially by crying, should be avoided or suppressed, especially in certain situations or if we want to appear strong.

But it's crucial to understand that crying is a natural and healthy way to release bottled-up emotions and stress. It's a physical response that helps us deal with different situations and emotions. Trying to hold back tears can negatively affect our mental and emotional well-being, possibly making us more stressed, anxious, or even physically unwell.

Today, let's talk about the positive effects of crying and releasing our emotions. Crying is not a sign of weakness, but rather an essential aspect of being human. It provides an avenue for emotional release, stress relief, enhanced mood, mental clarity, and deeper connections with others.

So, the next time you feel like shedding a tear, don't hold back. It's perfectly okay and can be quite beneficial for your overall well-being.

What We Discuss:

  • 00:00 Intro
  • 00:39 Story behind ‘A Really Good Cry’
  • 03:34 Crying and emotional release
  • 05:32 Embracing and processing emotions
  • 07:54 Emotions are signs from our body
  • 10:20 Recognizing and understanding your emotions
