Friendships change as people grow, and those shifts can bring up grief, confusion, frustration, or fear.In this episode, we unpack how growth, life transitions, shifting values, and changing capacity can create tension in friendships, and why our first instinct is often to fix, judge, withdraw, or take it personally. We talk about how asking better questions, staying open instead of defensive, and making space for both grief and care can help friendships adapt rather than fall apart. The goal is not to force the relationship back to what it was, but to navigate change in a way that protects both connection and individuality.

In this episode, The Chicks are opening up an honest, compassionate conversation about what it really feels like when a friendship ends. The grief, the confusion, the “what did I do wrong?” thoughts… and the quiet loneliness that can follow. If you've ever found yourself outgrowing a friendship, questioning your worth after a disconnection, or struggling to make sense of a shift in a once-close relationship...this episode is for you.

Friendship for all ages! How a conversation with a young listener reminded us that friendship is complicated at all ages  -- but here are some ways to swing it in your favor :D

Tom Bergeron joins Bobby to clear the air after comments he made about Bobby winning Dancing with the Stars caused tension between them last year. He talks honestly about that moment, how they worked through it, and what it was like to reconnect and address it directly. Tom also opens up about his long run on DWTS, the behind-the-scenes changes that led to his exit, and why Bobby’s season was one of the wildest he ever experienced. Plus, he shares stories about replacing Bob Saget on America’s Funniest Home Videos, close calls in his career, and some of the funniest and strangest moments he's seen in his career in television.

Clock in, because this week's episode is all about coworker drama. The girls jump right into your submissions, with nurses getting on each other's nerves, one man getting caught (again!?) drinking breast milk, and some tyrannical teacher's assistant deciding they're suddenly in charge of the entire classroom. We all know going into work can be rough, but after hearing these stories, you might just start thanking your lucky stars for your own job situation.!!!

Many of us have experienced a significant shift in a friendship that we thought would last a lifetime. It's painful and can be hard to talk about, which is why we have C+C writer Sonya Spillmann on the podcast today to share about the vulnerable essay she wrote for YIGC called "When Friendships Change." You'll hear about the role food played in one specific friendship, and Sonya tells us what she knows now that she didn't know then. This conversation invites you to see your friendships, both past and present, as the gifts they truly are.  This show is brought to you ad-free by our generous Substack community.

In our final sermon in this series, Pastor Mike explores why we did this series in the first place. It is not merely for people to think more about friendship, or try to make friends. But it's to find friends who will help us grow together. The whole point of this series is building friendships whereby we can grow together in drawing closer to Christ.

WakeUpToWisdom is back. And in true Gigi Farier fashion — we're starting with the real story. In this season two opener, Gigi takes us through the two years that kept her away from this microphone. Not one thing. Everything. Consecutive losses of close friends. A relationship ending. Apartments falling through. Bodybuilding preps that didn't go to plan. Financial instability. Friendships evolving. And through all of it — the quietly disorienting process of unmasking as an AuDHD woman, possibly for the first time in her life. She opens up about the self doubt that crept in — am I too weird, do I go too deep, does anyone actually want to hear what I have to say? And how studying psychology didn't make things easier — it made her more careful, more ethical, more intentional about the responsibility that comes with having a platform and a voice people trust. But this episode isn't about the losses. It's about what emerged from them. Gigi shares how her AuDHD diagnosis reignited something in her — a clarity of purpose, a permission to finally be fully herself, and a legacy living approach that reframed everything she had been through. The losses didn't break her story. They became part of it. WakeUpToWisdom was always therapeutic for Gigi's own healing journey. Coming back to this microphone is both a personal return and a purposeful one — because the conversations this show was built for are needed now more than ever. This is Season 2. This is the rebirth. And we're just getting started. For the woman who has ever wondered if she's too much — this episode is for you.

Friendship is something most of us long for—but if we're honest, it can also feel complicated, messy, and sometimes even painful. In this episode, Heath connects with author Amber Albee Swenson to talk about her new book When Friendship Feels Hard: God's Design for Deep Relationships. They explore why real friendships take time and effort in a culture that prizes convenience, and why social media connections can never replace the kind of relationships where people truly know and support one another.Amber shares honestly about seasons of loneliness, the power of vulnerability, and the role Christian community plays in helping us navigate life's hardest moments. From learning how to have difficult conversations to choosing grace when friendships hurt, this conversation is full of practical encouragement for anyone longing for deeper relationships. If you've ever wondered why friendship can feel so hard—or why it's still worth pursuing—this conversation will remind you why we were never meant to walk through life alone.

What if joy wasn't something you earned after success — but the very thing that creates it?In this episode of The Rich Bish Era, the roles reverse as I step into the guest seat and am interviewed by Jess Masion.In a grounded and deeply reflective conversation, I unpack what it truly means to redefine success as an ambitious woman — and why fun, pleasure, and nervous-system regulation are not indulgences, but essential foundations for sustainable wealth, leadership, and fulfilment.I reflect on being labelled a “party girl” early in life, navigating ambition without burnout, motherhood without self-erasure, and how prioritising joy has consistently coincided with her greatest personal and financial growth.This episode explores:Why ambitious women are often shamed for enjoying lifeThe false narrative that motherhood signals the end of fun and freedomHow joy and pleasure directly influence leadership, creativity, and incomeThe difference between understanding concepts and truly living themWhy asking for support is a strength, not a failureHow regulated energy leads to clearer decisions, stronger content, and better resultsThis is a conversation for women who are done equating seriousness with success — and are ready to build lives that feel as good as they look. — press play now!Episode Highlights:01:33 – The “fun, flirty, magnetic” side women are taught to suppress03:00 – Being labelled a “party girl”… and still outperforming04:42 – Why ambition and enjoyment are not opposites05:28 – The magnetism of women who are genuinely happy10:18 – How fun reconnects you to your identity13:47 – Burnout as a consequence of constant seriousness13:59 – Practical ways to prioritise fun when life is full15:13 – Friendship as nervous system regulation16:37 – What ambitious women need to hear (clearly)17:21 – Why joyful content always lands better17:58 – “I forgot I was allowed to enjoy myself” — retreat insight19:36 – Why Jessica's biggest income months came from her happiest seasons24:14 – Asking for support and receiving it well30:47 – The myth of identity loss after becoming a mum32:51 – Why joy ages you better than hustle33:00 – A new era: lighter, richer, more fulfilled

I saw this tiktok of a girl admitting to being a jealous friend and people chewed her up but she inspired me to make this episode so s/o to her for being a real one. Anyways, let's talk jealousy in friendships, my personal experience and I'd try to give a little advice? emphasis on try ;)

The Rizz Show has officially abandoned March Music Mayhem… because apparently Breaking Benjamin winning every single year got a little predictable. So this year we're doing something way more dangerous: March Movie Mayhem.That's right — 32 legendary 90s movies enter the bracket, and only ONE survives. Action movies, teen comedies, horror classics, and iconic dramas are all battling it out in a full-blown cinematic showdown. We're talking Shawshank Redemption vs Fight Club, Pulp Fiction vs The Matrix, Tommy Boy vs Austin Powers, and yes… some of these matchups feel like emotional crimes.The gang debates which movies deserve to survive round one, which films might sneak in as dark horses, and why trying to pick the greatest movie of the 90s might be the most impossible task since explaining the plot of The Big Lebowski to someone who's never seen it.Listeners can fill out their own bracket for a chance to win Pointfest tickets and a giant basket of 90s nostalgia (because Learn loves bundling baskets more than most people love their own family).But the movie madness is just the beginning.We also dive into the latest Oscars chaos, including Conan O'Brien roasting Hollywood, Timothée Chalamet accidentally starting a war with the opera and ballet community, and the ongoing tradition of people pretending they watched all the nominated movies when they absolutely did not.Elsewhere in today's show:• The Oscars recap nobody asked for but you're getting anyway• Michael B. Jordan's big win and the speech everyone actually liked• A tribute to legendary filmmaker Rob Reiner• Why Glenn Danzig buying kitty litter somehow broke the internet• Motorhead news that surprised the entire rock world• Bert Kreischer's tour bus literally catching fire• And the wild rumor about an actor secretly dating an AI chatbotPlus we wrap things up with birthdays, ridiculous celebrity gossip, and the kind of conversations that make this comedy podcast feel like hanging out with friends who absolutely should not have microphones.If you love movies, pop culture chaos, and sarcastic morning show nonsense, this episode of The Rizz Show delivers all of it.And remember: when the brackets start, friendships may end.Because picking between The Matrix and Pulp Fiction should probably require therapy.This episode of The Rizzuto Show is your daily dose of ridiculousness — a comedy podcast fueled by nostalgia, weird news, and the kind of debates that can only happen when a group of radio hosts start arguing about 90s movies before the coffee kicks in.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.

On today's episode of Back Porch Theology, Lisa, Allison, and Kristi McLelland step into the book of Ruth—a small but radiant story shining in Israel's dark days.

I've been thinking a lot about friendship lately. Not the surface-level kind, but the kind that actually sees you. The kind that knows the messy, unedited parts of your life…and stays. In my own life and in my work with clients, I keep noticing the same patterns: we hold back, self-edit, and worry we're “too much.” Beneath those fears, though, is a quiet longing: to be known, understood, and truly seen. In this new series, we'll explore that longing and the courageous work it takes to step into deeper friendship. Through conversations with guests and reflections from my own work as a therapist, we'll talk about vulnerability, emotional safety, and the skills that help deepen relationships.

Most men are emotionally alone and don't even realize it—until it's too late. What if I told you that the secret to mental health, resilience, and real strength lies not in isolation, but in brotherhood? This episode cuts through the surface, exposing the silent crisis of male loneliness and revealing a radical truth: connection is your most powerful weapon against despair.Think men weren't meant for emotional closeness?Think again. Historical letters show tenderness and vulnerability between men were once normal—until cultural pressures cast closeness as weakness.

Myth-busting: real brotherhood isn't a luxury—it's a biological necessity, proven to reduce depression, anxiety, and even speed up healing.This is about more than just talking; it's about creating a support system that sustains you through life's toughest storms. If you're ready to rewire your emotional landscape and reclaim your strength, this episode is your blueprint. Because the real power of a man lies in the depth of his connections—will you take the first step?Perfect for men seeking genuine brotherhood, leaders ready to lead from the front, or anyone tired of life's loneliness. Your community, your health, your very survival depends on it.Let's break the cycle. Let's reconnect—because you're not meant to do this alone.

What can a cheetah and a rescue dog teach us about trust, friendship, and belonging? In this episode, Tricia Friedman sits down with bestselling author Jasmine Warga to talk about her newest book and the powerful themes at its heart: vulnerability, unlikely friendships, and the courage it takes to let someone truly see you. Inspired by a real program in zoos where rescue dogs are paired with anxious cheetahs, Warga's story explores how connection can help both animals—and humans—feel less alone. Through the voices of a cheetah and a dog, the book opens up conversations about anxiety, trust, identity, and the universal desire to belong. Together, Tricia and Jasmine explore how storytelling helps young readers navigate big emotions, why animals can sometimes say things humans cannot, and how asking questions—rather than providing answers—is often the most powerful way to write for young people. They also go behind the scenes of Warga's writing process, from messy notebooks and long walks to the surprising freedom of writing a "zero draft." This conversation is a powerful reminder that the stories we share with young readers can help build empathy, connection, and community.

Join us as we discuss navigating sharing ourselves in friendship, and the intertwined spaces of family, social media, and overlapping friend groups.

In this episode of She Who Dares Wins, Michelle sits down with Chloe Brennan – two-time World's Strongest Woman (u73kg), England's Strongest Woman, coach, and founder of Lift Your Limits – to explore what really sits behind strength, success, and daring to change your life.Chloe shares how she walked away from a “perfect” academic path in psychology, pivoted into learning disability nursing, and then again into elite strongwoman competition and holistic strength coaching. She opens up about therapy, hypnotherapy, and the “not good enough” complex that drove her, as well as the identity crisis that hit after she'd ticked off all her biggest goals.You'll hear Chloe and Michelle dig into:Why going against expectations was the first real act of daring in Chloe's lifeHow sport exposed deep-rooted beliefs about not being good enoughWhat hypnotherapy actually is (and isn't) – and why high-performing athletes love itIdentity, external validation, and what happens when you've achieved “everything”The pressure to stay in one box – athlete, creator, or coach – and how to let yourself be all of youThis is a conversation for anyone standing at a crossroads, feeling they “should” stay where they are, but knowing there's more.Key TakeawaysGoing against expectations is often the first brave step – leaving psychology for nursing was Chloe's first real act of owning her life.Performance problems are usually mindset problems – most athletes Chloe works with hit the same beliefs: “I'm not good enough”, fear of failure, and perfectionism.Hypnotherapy isn't mind control – it's about self-efficacy, rewiring limiting beliefs, and using evidence of who you already are.Identity is fluid, not fixed – you don't have to choose between being an athlete, a creator, or a coach. You're allowed to be all of it.Success without inner work can feel empty – Chloe hit podiums and world records and still felt flat until she faced the deeper stuff in therapy.External validation isn't evil, just incomplete – it feels good, but it can't replace self-acceptance.Backing yourself is a dare – confidence doesn't mean no doubt; it means moving with the doubt anyway.Timestamps0:00:00 – Introducing Chloe and the “She Who Dares Wins” question: how she's dared and won0:01:30 – Leaving a “perfect” psychology path for disability nursing and owning her first big pivot0:03:40 – Discovering strongwoman through trampolining injuries, powerlifting and an accidental first comp0:08:40 – From nurse to full-time strength coach and building a holistic coaching business0:09:50 – Hypnotherapy explained: busting myths and how it transforms athlete mindsets0:15:55 – Titles, world records and still not feeling “enough” – when success doesn't fix the emptiness0:18:12 – Therapy, triggers, and realizing sport was carrying a deep “not good enough” story0:25:05 – Identity, parts integration, and letting “athlete Chloe” and “human Chloe” coexist0:31:16 – Purpose, presence and Alan Watts – questioning the obsession with “getting somewhere”0:38:53 – Friendship, boundaries and letting people (and followers) go when they're not your people0:46:39 – January pivot: saying she was “done” competing to finding her way back to strongwoman0:52:26 – Athletes, businesswomen and mindset: why Chloe's work goes far beyond the gym0:56:57 – Chloe's dare for women: back yourself, acknowledge your wins, and do it even when you doubt yourselfJoin Dare Club HereShop hoodies and Tees www.shewhodareswins.com Hosted on Acast.

This Troutbitten Skills Series and these platforms are an effort to pass along the idea that fly selection doesn't have to be regimented or complicated. Instead, see flies for what they have in common. Find their similarities rather than their differences. Choose the elements that matter most to you. Find the components of a fly that create enough of a distinction to be the keys to a platform, and build around that idea.I do think some things are undeniable, and almost every angler is going to classify a parachute the same way. That might be true for upright hackles and down wings too.But I'm sure you've noticed that the further we got into this season, the less specific each platform became. And again, that's just because there are only so many things you can put on a dry fly and still have it be successful.Most of the more recent flies designed take their cues from what came before them. Honestly, I assume that will hold true going into the future too.My friends Bill Dell, Austin Dando and Matt Grobe join me for the conclusion of Season 18.ResourcesPODCAST: Troutbitten | Fly Tying - Essential Tools and More (S17 Ep9)READ: Troutbitten | Pattern vs PresentationPODCAST: Troutbitten | Fishing Dry Flies - Dry Fly Skills Series  (S12)VisitTroutbitten WebsiteTroutbitten InstagramTroutbitten YouTubeTroutbitten FacebookThanks to TroutRoutes:Use the code TROUTBITTEN for 20% off your membership athttps://maps.troutroutes.com Thanks to SkwalaUse the code, TROUTBITTEN10 for 10% off your order athttps://skwalafishing.com/

Why does making friends feel so much harder as an adult? In a world where we're more connected online than ever before, why are so many people feeling deeply lonely? In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with author, speaker, and friendship expert Shari Leid to explore the hidden crisis of adult friendship and why so many successful, driven people still feel disconnected in their daily lives. From friendship breakups to the pressure of building new relationships later in life, this conversation uncovers the emotional realities many people silently struggle with.Together, Lauryn and Shari dive into the loneliness epidemic, why friendship breakups can hurt as much as romantic ones, and how modern life has quietly eroded our sense of community. Shari shares lessons from her journey traveling the United States and meeting with women from every walk of life to better understand belonging, connection, and what truly builds lasting friendships. If you've ever felt like it's harder than it should be to make or maintain meaningful relationships as an adult, this episode offers practical insight and hope for creating deeper connections in your life.Key Takeaways:• Adult friendship requires intentionality. Unlike childhood or college friendships formed through proximity, meaningful adult friendships often require deliberate effort, shared environments, and consistent interaction to grow.• Friendship breakups are more common—and more painful—than most people realize. Normalizing the idea that friendships evolve or end can help people process those changes without shame or unnecessary self-blame.• Loneliness is a growing health crisis. Building community, practicing curiosity in conversation, and focusing on genuine connection can dramatically improve emotional wellbeing and long-term life satisfaction.About the Guest:Shari Leid is a nationally recognized keynote speaker, author, and connection expert dedicated to helping people build deeper relationships in an increasingly disconnected world. She is the creator of the Flip the Box Method, a human-centered leadership approach designed to foster belonging and meaningful connection. Shari is the bestselling author of multiple books including Table for 51, inspired by her journey traveling across the United States to share meals with women in every state. Her work has been featured on NBC's Today Show, ABC, CBS, FOX, and in publications including Time, HuffPost, and Shondaland.Find all things Shari Leid by visiting her website, An Imperfectly Perfect LifeFollow Shari on InstagramResourcesFollow Dr. Lauryn: Instagram | X | LinkedIn | FacebookFollow She Slays on YouTubeSign up for the Weekly Slay newsletter!Mentioned in this episode:Learn more about Sunlighten Saunas and get your She Slays discount by clicking the link below!She Slays Associates Job BoardTo learn more about CLA and the INSiGHT scanner go to the link below and enter code SHESLAYS when prompted.CLADo you need help in your practice with the busy work that you or your staff don't like doing?

Friendship is not optional in the Christian life—it’s essential. Lauren Fletcher highlights how God designs relationships to encourage, support, and help us grow in Christ. By sharing our struggles, confessing sin, and offering genuine care, we reflect God’s love to one another. True friendships sharpen us, lift us up in times of need, and create a community where His love is experienced and expressed. Highlights Encouragement: Friends help us persevere and remind us of God’s truth (1 Thessalonians 5:11). Spiritual Growth: “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend” (Proverbs 27:17). Support in Hardship: Care packages, prayer, and practical help show Christ’s love in action. Confession & Healing: Sharing struggles removes shame and brings healing (James 5:16; Galatians 6:1-2). Together We Thrive: Ecclesiastes reminds us that life is better lived with others; multiple relationships strengthen resilience (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12). Love in Action: By loving friends authentically, God’s love is manifested in us. Intersecting Faith & Life God did not intend for us to walk through life alone. Whether it’s encouragement in a hard season, spiritual accountability, or practical support, friends reflect His heart and make the Christian journey sustainable and joyful. Cultivating and investing in these relationships honors God and enriches our daily walk. This episode is sponsored by Trinity Debt Management. If you are struggling with debt call Trinity today.

No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.” - 1 John 4:11-12 I have been blessed with many close friends. It wasn’t always that way, though. There was a time when I didn’t share much about myself with others. I hid the “not pretty” part of my life in a figurative coat closet, with the bad memories boxed up on the top shelf. There were things I had learned that you do not talk about. All of this changed when I started a new season of small groups at church. Within safe spaces, I learned I could share my life with others and be fully accepted. This surprised me. I realized the closet had to be opened, and the memories, one by one, taken off the shelf, boxes opened, and shared with others. What I learned was that friendship is a blessing and absolutely essential to the Christian life. In friendship, we encourage each other and help each other grow. I have a friend with a gift for encouragement. I call her sometimes for a “pep talk.” She has a great way of encouraging me in the Lord and reminding me of the truth. I can come with my difficult circumstances and prayer requests and leave with a sense of hope. I am so grateful to her. In 1 Thessalonians, it says, “So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing” (1 Thessalonians 5:11). It is so important to encourage each other because life can get difficult. We need each other’s help to keep going. As friends, we also help each other grow. In Proverbs, it says, “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend” (Proverbs 27:17). We make each other better in Christ. We help each other in times of need. As I joined a women’s group at my church, I saw this firsthand. Meeting around the fire, I’d hear women share their stories and what they were going through. Each person was met with support and love. Sometimes, we’d support each other through care packages, times of prayer, or even meal trains. This showed me how to love others in their hard seasons, how to be there for them. 1 John 4:11-12 says, “Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.” As we put our love into action, we show each other the love of Christ. We confess our sins to each other. I remember in college, I was struggling with sin. At some point, I confessed this sin to a friend of mine, who listened, supported me, and compassionately shared helpful scripture with me. What happened was I no longer felt alone in things or hidden in shame. In Galatians 6, Paul says, “Dear brothers and sisters, if another believer is overcome by some sin, you who are godly should gently and humbly help that person back onto the right path. And be careful not to fall into the same temptation yourself. Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:1-2). What I found in sharing these hard things with friends is that we begin to fight this battle together—I am no longer by myself in it. It also removes the shame that I feel, which causes me to hide sin. Coming into the light, my friends have been waiting and ready to help. In James, it says, “Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results” (James 5:16). When we stop hiding our sin from each other and from God, He can heal us. Intersecting Faith & Life: As I’ve continued to learn about friendship, I've found that friends help pick each other up. In Ecclesiastes, it says, “Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble” (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). The writer continues, “A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken” (Ecclesiastes 4:12). I pray that you find these things to be true in your friendships as well. God did not create us to be alone or to walk out this life by ourselves. I pray that God will bring you the right people at the right time and strengthen the relationships you already have. Lord, thank You for friendship. Thank You that you intended for us to walk through life with others. Thank You for the good plans You have for our lives (Jeremiah 29:11). I pray that You would bless my life with abundant relationships that reflect Your heart. Show me how to be a good friend. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

A listener has a question about the diagnosis of ODD, oppositional defiant disorder. What does this diagnosis mean, what does this label offer families, and why (in Lynn's and others' opinion) is it inadequate and even harmful in understanding children who are struggling? The bigger question to ask: how do we help kids and parents when behavior is unmanageable? Here are the past Flusterclux episodes discussed by Lynn & Robin: Real Talk with ADHD Expert Ryan Wexelblatt: Anxiety, ADHD and the Mess We're In Helping Your ADHD Kid with Social Struggles: A New Conversation with ADHD Expert Ryan Wexelblatt How to Help Your Child with Friendships and Likability "Parents Still Matter!"

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, host Dr. Kathy addresses the challenges parents face when their children struggle with friendships or are influenced by negative peers. Drawing on the importance of self-awareness and shared experiences, Dr. Kathy emphasizes the need for parents to communicate their hopes and strengths for their children while teaching them discernment in choosing friends. The segment, titled "Facing the Dark," provides valuable insights to help guide kids toward positive friendships and community involvement. Additionally, Dr. Kathy touches on a recent event where Melania Trump advocated for a bill aimed at protecting individuals from the non-consensual posting of intimate imagery online, highlighting the relevance of consent in the digital age.

Ever meet someone you instantly “click” with — but the connection never turns into a real friendship? AJ and Johnny explain why chemistry alone doesn't create adult friendships. Research shows trust forms through repeated patterns, not one great conversation. Real closeness grows from small signals: reliability, gradual self-disclosure, and making people feel understood. In this episode, you'll learn three practical ways to build trust faster and turn good conversations into real relationships.
