Breaking Through One-Sided Connections With Chrissy Marie 1:00:39

Have you ever felt like you’re ALWAYS the one giving a shoulder to cry on – but don’t have one to cry on yourself? I think it’s a common issue among friends.

Have you ever hesitated to set a boundary with a friend for fear of pushing them away?

Today I talk about two friendship terms I’ve been hearing more about lately: the “couch friend” and the “errand friend.” Lots of people want these kinds of friendships because they’re supposed to be easy. You do life’s responsibilities together or you do absolutely nothing together – no planning or panic cleaning required. But how do you find these…

30:00

Have you ever met someone truly magnetic? They walk into the room, and suddenly, the energy shifts. People are drawn to them. Some might argue that this is just the way some people were born.

Shifting People Pleasing Friendship Patterns with Deb Blum 1:06:12

4M ago1:06:12

1:06:12

A few years ago, I realized that one of my friendship patterns was actually kind of a problem. I’d show up for my friends as Superwoman, bragging that I could (and would) drop everything and do anything for my friends – even if it meant betraying myself and my own needs. Then, when I really needed help, I’d never ask for it. I think we all have fri…
