    Friendship Breakups, Boundaries, and Healing


    Friendship heartbreaks hurt just as deeply as romantic ones sometimes even more. In this episode, we unpack what it means to lose a friend you thought would be around forever, the grief that follows, and the slow, gentle process of healing or not…


    We also talk about the importance of setting healthy boundaries, recognizing when you’ve outgrown certain dynamics, and asking the hard question: are you sure you aren’t the toxic one? It’s an honest, emotional, and growth-filled conversation about learning, unlearning, and finding peace after friendship loss.

    19. Being Married to a narcissist: how I knew and got out. w/ Samira Mohammed
    Nov 25 2023
    Samira is incredibly brave! Not only did she escape a toxic situation, but she's also sharing her story to help others. Her resilience is truly inspiring. In our society, it's crucial to raise awareness about emotional abuse and its detrimental effects. I genuinely hope that anyone going through this can find the strength to leave or make their partner understand the seriousness of the issue. By the way, Samira found some books that helped her gain perspective and made her leaving a little easier: * He’s not so good for you ~ Beth Wilson * When love hurts ~ Jill Cory and Karen McAndless-Davis Connect with Samira Mohammed on https://instagram.com/reclaimingsafety?igshid=MmVlMjlkMTBhMg== Follow us on instagram: https://instagram.com/neverfullyunderstood_?igshid=NzZhOTFlYzFmZQ==
