This week, Maddy and Jen dive into friendship breakups—what it means when a once-close bond starts to shift. They explore when to move on, when to reconnect, and how life changes like sobriety, divorce, or grief can shake up your inner circle.

Key Takeaways:

• Friendships often fade more than they explode—and that’s normal.
• Life transitions (like moving, getting married, or getting sober) can shift who feels aligned.
• It’s okay to reach back out, even after time has passed.
• Not all relationships are meant to last forever—and that doesn’t make them failures.
• You can grieve a friendship the same way you grieve a breakup.

Dating can feel like a full-time job—and when you finally meet someone who seems normal enough, it’s tempting to skip the slow burn and dive in headfirst. But before you have the “what are we?” conversation, Maddy and Jen want you to take a breath.

This week, the gals are breaking down green flags, dealbreakers, and the questions you really need to ask before locking it down.

Three questions to ask before defining the relationship:

• Is it chemistry or compatibility?
• Do we want the same things out of life—at least in the near term?
• How does this person show up when things aren’t easy?
