Do you have a circle of friends?
A recent social media post about friendship circles inspired me to share my take on the different levels of friendship and how someone moves from our outer circle – acquaintances and colleagues – to the inner circle of people we share our most vulnerable and deepest thoughts and feelings with – our core group of VIP friends. I talk about managing expectations across the circles, the reciprocation of friendship, and the challenges of transitioning friends between the inner and outer circles.
I hope this episode helps you to reflect on your circle of friends and deepens your understanding of the importance of authenticity and connection at each level of friendship.
Episode Gems:
“We are calling people our besties, or we're saying this is the person who's a friend, but are they though? Are they showing up the way that you would want a friend to show up?”
“I think we need to be more critical and we need to really look at who we're letting into that core (friendship) circle.”
