#369: Friendship "breakups" and falling outs are unfortunately quite common throughout adult life, and is especially more difficult in your 20s. Sometimes, there isn't even a specific reason, it just happens out of the blue with no real explanation.

What you will learn: How to deeply reflect on your core values and what that means in your friendships and relationships Understanding whether you're overextending compassion to others and not enough towards yourself Creating self-awareness on possible areas you may have fell short in a relationship Processing patterns that may have occurred more than once in a friendship that led to the falling out later on How to recognize people's capacity and emotional maturity and hold space for that, while also having your own needs and boundaries BILT Credit Card Info (Pay Rent and Earn Points): https://bilt.page/r/HQ06-ZV7O Receive weekly personal insights from Emily's email newsletter and subscribe here Watch Full Episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@whatfulfillsyou/videos ENJOY 10% OFF THE WHAT FULFILLS YOU?
