Solo Episode: Breaking Up With Friends and the Power of Your Solitude

It turns out I didn't need a higher dosage of my Zoloft, I just needed eight hours of sleep. Speaking to you from Florida, I'm sharing all my thoughts this week on prioritizing yourself and why taking a step back can sometimes be the only way forward. We're taking a deep dive into the awkward realm of friendship breakups, why it's important to know the difference between someone who wants to be friends with you and someone who wants to be friends with you in order to use you, and why learning to enjoy your own company is the only way to keep yourself from staying in toxic friendships. I'm answering voicemails from a biddie torn between staying in Italy with her super supportive, boyfriend or taking her dream job in Sydney. Hint: I might have told her to 'choose herself', but you'll have to listen to find out. I also discuss why you should find a partner who loves the current you—not some 'improved version' of you.

Om Podcasten

Welcome to Brutally Anna, a podcast about finding love, losing love, and all the things we think about a lot, but don’t talk about enough. I’m your host, Anna Kai aka @maybeboth across social media, here to remind you that life can be beautiful, even when it’s freaking brutal. On this brand new podcast, I’m joined by some of your favorite creators and experts on how they navigate dating, how to stay hopeful when you’ve kissed one-too-many frogs or Chads, and most importantly, how to love yourself when you haven’t yet found someone else to love you. Each week, we tackle everything from dating after divorce, how to ask for what you want from a relationship, and what death can teach us about love and life. If you’ve ever wondered how to begin again when life as you know it has ended, this podcast is here to remind you that the best thing to come out of rejection is often our reinvention. Join me on Mondays as I sit down and get you the brutal truth so that you can find your truth. Don’t forget to follow me @maybeboth across social media and subscribe to Brutally Anna wherever you get your podcasts.
