This week on ShrinkChicks, Em and Jen are taking on the topic of friendship, from making new ones to grieving breakups and navigating the complicated in-betweens. They share why effort matters in adult friendships, how to handle loneliness, and why friendship breakups can hurt just as much as romantic ones.

Listener questions cover everything from reconnecting with old friends, financial differences, and friendship triangles to handling drifting connections, performative friends, and rejection. Em and Jen also dig into adolescent friendship wounds that still sting in adulthood, how to politely exit a new friendship, and what to do when your child’s friendships clash with your own. Plus, in Dear Em & Jen, they respond to a listener dating someone new with big-T trauma.

Tune in to gain insight, awareness, and action! PS: Fast forward to around 7 minutes to skip the intro and get straight to today’s content.
