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.

How can you spot a narcissist?
It's quite a surprise to think that someone close to us might actually have those traits—or maybe, in some ways, we share them ourselves. Narcissism isn't always obvious; it can hide in plain sight, making it tough to tell who's who and leading us to question whether we see it in others or within ourselves.
Today I welcome Dr. Ramani Durvasula, a clinical psychologist known for her expertise in narcissism, personality disorders, and mental health. She's authored several books, including "Should I Stay or Should I Go: Surviving a Relationship with a Narcissist" and “It's Not You: Identifying and Healing from Narcissistic People".
In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Dr. Ramani dives into narcissism, breaking down what makes someone a narcissist and how it affects relationships and society. She talks about spotting narcissistic traits, whether they're innate or learned, and how tough it is to change these behaviors.
I hope this episode provides you with practical insights and a deeper understanding of narcissism, enabling you to navigate relationships with clarity and confidence.

How much help is too much?
This question hits close to home for many of us. We all want to be there for our friends and family, but there comes a point where we need to step back.
Offering too much help can end up making them dependent on us, preventing them from learning to stand on their own.
It's all about finding that middle ground – being supportive without taking away their chance to learn and grow independently.
Today, let's explore the idea of figuring out when our help might be excessive, and whether it's causing any negative impacts on us or the person we're assisting. We've all been in situations where we give a lot without receiving the same in return. To handle this, we need to understand what genuine support truly means.
Always remember that there are times when you don't have to be the hero for everyone. Sometimes, it's important to take care of yourself first before reaching out to help others.

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.
