    In this episode, Amanda and Nancy explore the difficult decision to walk away from friendships that no longer serve us.

Nancy discusses her experiences with a blunt coworker whose straightforwardness became increasingly uncomfortable, and a childhood best friend whose toxic influence led her down unhealthy paths. Join us as we reflect on the emotions, lessons learned, and the importance of prioritizing our well-being. If you’re navigating friendship breakups, hopefully our discussion offers relatable insights and support.

    I'm the problem, it's me

    In this episode, we’re opening up about our first loves—the whirlwind of excitement, passion, and ultimately, the toxicity that unfolded. We’ll take you back to how we met them, the magic that sparked between us, and how everything seemed perfect at first.

Together, we’ll explore how these dynamics took root and how it all came crashing down. Join us as we reflect on the lessons learned and what it really means to grow from loves that were once everything but ended up being more painful than we could have ever imagined.
