221: I'm Kind of a Bad Friend — Ambition, Priorities & Friendship Guilt

221: I'm Kind of a Bad Friend — Ambition, Priorities & Friendship Guilt

Okay, real talk: I love my people, but when life gets ambitious, friendship is the first thing that slides off my calendar. Work, kids, and even rest often feel easier to prioritize than grabbing coffee with a friend. But here's what I've learned: friendship isn't optional — it's survival.

In this episode, I unpack:

  • Why friendship matters for ambitious women (spoiler: it literally improves your health and longevity).

  • My own struggles with friendship guilt when I've been "too busy" or spread too thin.

  • The barriers that get in the way of friendships as we move through different seasons of life.

  • Practical strategies to tend to friendships — even when schedules are packed.

This is your reminder that friendships don't have to be perfect to matter, and they don't have to be fancy to be meaningful. Whether it's a quick text or a monthly coffee date, tending to your friendships will make you a better leader, partner, parent, and human.

Key Takeaways:

  • Friendship is survival — it's not extra, it's essential.

  • Friendships don't have to be perfect to matter.

  • It doesn't have to be fancy to be meaningful.

  • You can always restart and reprioritize your friendships, no matter the season you're in.
