Friendships that last a lifetime are those in which the balance between give and take, honesty and support, and a genuine desire for our friend's well-being are paramount.
Friendships can be as unpredictable as the weather, and Kendell Boysen knows all too well the emotional rollercoaster they can bring. In this episode of 'Encouragementology', Kendell dives into the ever-changing nature of friendships, offering heartfelt advice on managing the highs and lows. Whether you've got a friend since childhood or you're navigating new connections, this episode is packed with insights to help you maintain healthy relationships.
Kendell emphasizes the importance of setting high standards for your friends and being realistic about your expectations. If someone talks behind others' backs, they're probably not the best fit for your inner circle. She also highlights the significance of personal growth in friendships. Drawing from Amanda Kuda's advice, Kendell suggests making a clear list of what you want in a friendship and affirming that you deserve fulfilling relationships.
It's also crucial to recognize your own flaws and use those lessons to become a better friend and kinder to yourself. Dr. Karen Binder-Burns adds another layer of wisdom, noting that proximity plays a key role in maintaining close friendships. Lifelong friendships thrive on a balance of honesty, support, and a genuine desire for each other's well-being. But sometimes, the balance shifts, and it's okay to let go when a friendship no longer serves you.
Kendell encourages listeners to keep their inner circle small—less than five people—and invest deeply in these relationships. Overextending yourself with too many friends can lead to feelings of resentment and rejection. Tune in to this episode for Kendell's invaluable tips on navigating the complex landscape of friendships and ensuring your relationships are both meaningful and supportive.
