When grappling with profound loss; it's during these times that we look to our friends for comfort, only to realize that some may have taken a step back just when we needed them most.
If you've ever felt let down by the people you expected to be there for you during tough times, this discussion is for you.
In this episode, we explore:

The complexity of grief and how it can affect relationships.
How friends may struggle with their own emotions or uncertainty on how to support us.
The importance of clear communication about what support looks like for YOU.
Finding additional sources of comfort beyond your immediate circle.

Grief is tough. It tests bonds and bends emotions. But it also teaches us about resilience, compassion, and the true strength of our connections.

It's crucial then to communicate openly—expressing what form of support you're seeking can bridge gaps and foster understanding. Yet it’s equally important to temper those expectations because not all friendships are built for stormy weather.
Remember: Your worth isn't measured by others' capacity to stay beside you in your darkest hours. As you wade through grief's currents, know that it’s okay if some relationships drift away—it opens space for growth and new connections.
As for those who do stand by you? Cherish them—they are your lighthouses in life’s storms.
