Podcasts about toxic friends

When life gets hard, we turn to our female friends. Husbands, partners, and jobs come and go, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they're not. What happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? In Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships Are Mended Or Ended (Meridian Editions, 2025) Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women ranging in age from 20-80, Barash reveals an emerging trend - estrangement among female friends. Estranged is an eye-opening investigation/practical guide for women navigating murky waters of suboptimal friendships. The book sheds light on unspoken pain of estrangement - both for the "estranger" who walks away and the "estrangee" who is left behind. Amid candid confessions of betrayal and grief, Barash challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. This cutting-edge book offers an empowering path forward: learning to prioritize self-worth, stability and authenticity over loyalty to friendships that no longer serve us. Susan Shapiro Barash has written more than a dozen nonfiction books including Tripping the Prom Queen, Toxic Friends and You're Grounded Forever, but First Let's Go Shopping. For more than 20 years she taught gender studies and Marymount Manhattan College and has guest taught creative nonfiction at the Writing Institute at Sarah Lawrence College. Her fiction is published under her pen name, Susannah Marren. Deidre Tyler, PhD - Sociologist, Instructional Technologist. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this enlightening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we welcome Susan Shapiro Barash, trailblazer in gender studies and author of Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships Are Mended or Ended. Together, we unpack the often-taboo subject of female friendship breakdowns—why they happen, the emotional toll they take, and why letting go can be an act of self-love. Drawing insights from 150 interviews with women aged 20 to 80, Susan shares stories of betrayal, jealousy, and shifting values that lead to friendship estrangement. This episode invites listeners to reflect on their own relationships and offers permission to prioritize well-being over outdated notions of loyalty. About the Guest:Susan Shapiro Barash is a celebrated author and gender studies expert with over 14 non-fiction books, including Toxic Friends and Tripping the Prom Queen. Her latest book, Estranged, explores the hidden complexities of female friendships, revealing why some relationships fade and how women can navigate these shifts with grace and empowerment. Key Takeaways: Friendships aren't always forever—and that's okay. Betrayal, jealousy, and diverging values often fracture bonds. Letting go of toxic friendships is an act of courage, not failure. Women often avoid conflict in friendships due to cultural conditioning as "pleasers." Emotional healing from friendship loss requires self-reflection and self-compassion.

Is your husband trying to turn the kids against you? Is your kid in a toxic friendship and needs your help to get out of it? Does your kid have an unhealthy obsession with your new partner? Yes? No? What the hell? Either way today's HYROK episode is a scandalously good listen with Tina on form answering some of the toughest questions we have ever received.Question 1- A single mum gets in touch wondering how she can best protect her children while coping with her ex husband's negative behaviour towards her. Parental alienation is thankfully a recognised crime now. Are there enough supports out there when it happens at a very early age and hard to pin point what's actually happening. Who can you ask for help? How do you survive and maintain your mental health. Moms tend to only care about the welfare of their children but sometimes putting yourself first really matters too. Question 2Friendship issues are a daily worry for most kids. A lot of the time it is agonising to observe as a parent. What is the best approach? Shut down the friendship? Go to the parent? Or get the school involved? An incredibly hard one to navigate but arming our children to stand up for themselves and to be happy in their own company is equally important. Question 3What do you do if your child think he's in love with your new partner? For this listener the crush might have developed into an infatuation and their child's entire behaviour is changing. How do you get them back on track? How do you curb their new obsession while teaching them boundaries and respect? This week a stressed out dad gets in touch with this exact problem.Easter break is in the books. Maybe you got a rest. Maybe your kids ran you ragged and their return to school is your first chance to breathe out. According to the recently published Aldi Mammies and Daddies Report into the lives of Irish parents the later is probably the case if your're the Mammy. Jarlath was invited onto Jen Hogan's "Mamia And Me" podcast panel to discuss the findings to see if they match up to what we are seeing here on Honey! You're Ruining Our Kid. Along with our 3 brilliant questions from the listeners, this week we dive into those findings and the disproportionate impact parenting has on women rather than men. How important is it for us to change the old school views that form the seed of these problems. Shout out to the amazing little toddler who brought the entertainment on the day of the live recording. She won the room. You can listen to the episode very soon here.There's a big extra chunk over on www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad - why not come over and join us in a few clicks. It's how we support the show and it's the place where you can here "what happened next" when the listeners apply Tina's advice.

This episode talks about the importance of being cautious of who is in your circle. It speaks on the fact that not everyone has the best intentions for you.

Show Notes: Girls often respond to toxic friends with tend & befriend behaviors instead of moving on for fear of being alone. Dr. Jordan describes how important friends are for girls and their fear of losing them if they confront them about being mistreated, even to the point of putting up with abuse, Girls haven't learned the skills for handling conflicts directly and so their emotions get pushed below the surface pushed & fester. These feelings then leak out as drama and relationship aggressions. Listen in to learn how the wiring of the female brain predisposes females to want to connect, avoid conflict, and maintain social harmony. Since prehistoric times, close bonds and being a part of a group meant you had a much better chance of survival; being left out meant death! Dr. Jordan discusses how female's primary response to stress and fearful situations is not fight or flight, it's tend and befriend. Girls thus prefer to fix their relationships as opposed to ending them. “Good Girl “conditioning makes it harder for girls to confront others, speak their truth with authority, and know their needs are important too. Some girls hang onto toxic friends because they feel responsible for their friend's mental health and fear their friend will go down the tubes if they move on from the friendship. Many girls are desperate to be included in the more popular group and thus willing to be abused by them. It feels good to be noticed, popular, and have a sense of belonging even if your aren't treated well. Don't push daughter to dump toxic friends. Listen to her story & feelings, ask what she wants to do, role play setting boundaries, let her know you understand her fear of losing group. She will be more open to hearing your feedback and suggestions if she first feels heard and understood.
