885. How to find women who truly see + support you

Okay, girls... I've been wanting to have this conversation with you. I've been reflecting on this a lot lately, and I have a feeling some of you have been craving this too. I truly believe one of the greatest gifts in my life has been the women who have loved me, challenged me, and reminded me who I am. In this episode, I'm sharing why female friendships have become the most healing relationships I've ever experienced + what it takes to build them. We'll talk about healing the sister wound, letting go of comparison + competition, communicating with more intention, and creating friendships that allow you to grow. If you've been wondering why your friendships don't feel as fulfilling as you want them to, this conversation is for you.  We also talk about: Why being loved by other women can be so healing The text message that inspired this entire conversation Learning to trust women again Finding your "relational field" + attracting aligned friendships Why comparison + competition sabotage connection How Lindsey became my first example of a truly healthy friendship The importance of communicating instead of storing resentment Why every friendship has a different purpose + season How nervous system regulation creates more secure relationships Why you have to go first if you want deeper, more meaningful friendships Resources: Instagram: @itskrista Website: https://itskrista.com/ Sponsors: Super | Start building your credit the easy way.
