Ways to release the “strong friend” behavior

LISTEN TO EP 56: ITUNES | SPOTIFY

We all have that strong friend. They’re the ones who make it their job to show up. Hell, you may even be the strong friend. I know I am. I will get my hands dirty for you. I will text a friend to say I’m thinking of them. I’ll call my best friends and see how they’re really doing. Therapy has taught me that I’m essentially mimicking how I want people to show up for me instead of voicing how I would like support.

I’ve heard a lot of people say they have a lot going on and don’t have time to check in on people. Take a look outside right now… we’re all busy. This isn’t the struggle Olympics and your busy isn’t any more important than my busy.

In this episode, we’re going to talk about a few really powerful reasons you should check in on your strong friends and ways to release your “strong friend” behavior (if that’s you).
