Let’s talk about the friendships that shape us, the ones that break our hearts, and the brave-ass decisions we make to live a life that’s actually ours.

In this raw and honest convo, I’m joined by Jess Diamond—mindset coach, podcast host, and certified Brave B*tch—who knows what it’s like to lose the people you thought would always be there… and then rebuild from that place. We get into the messy, beautiful chaos of friendships in your twenties, the ache of growing apart, and the courage it takes to start over—whether that’s in your career, your relationships, or your sense of self.

We don’t hold back.
We talk:

Friendship breakups that hurt worse than romantic ones
Building deep connections as an adult (yes, it’s possible!)
The risks and rewards of choosing vulnerability
Leaving the "shoulds" behind and building a life that lights you up
Why playing it safe is killing your joy—and how to stop

Jess keeps it real. And by the end, you might just text your best friend or finally let go of the one you’ve been white-knuckling. Either way, you’ll feel seen.
