Manage episode 450778469 series 3454175
Welcome back to The Brave Table, lovelies! Today’s episode is for anyone who’s ever felt the sting of a friendship breakup or the pull to step into a new version of themselves while navigating the complexities of relationships. I’m joined by none other than my beautiful friend, Simone Heng, author of Let's Talk About Loneliness and The Secret Pandemic.
Simone is a human connection specialist, a former international broadcaster, and a powerhouse speaker. Together, we dive deep into the often-untold story of friendship breakups, how boundaries change everything after 40, and why true connection is the ultimate antidote to loneliness. If you’ve ever wondered if your relationships are in alignment or felt the pull to honor your boundaries unapologetically, this episode is for YOU! Get cozy, grab your tea (or wine!), and let's be brave together.
What you'll get out of this episode…
As you age, you'll care less about others' opinions and confidently honor your boundaries.
Friendship breakups are painful but open the door to more aligned connections.
True connection conquers loneliness, thriving in deep, authentic relationships over superficial ones.
Cultural differences shape us, but connection is universally vital.
Healing begins with awareness of your needs and boundaries, whether in family, friendships, or personal growth.
