This episode is about the friendships you quietly grow out of… the ones that once felt like home but now feel like a version of you you’ve outgrown.Not because of drama.Not because of resentment.But because growth changed the language you speak.We talk about what really happens when you begin healing, setting boundaries, choosing peace over performance and how those shifts often create distance between you and people who only knew the unhealed version of you.I share the emotional layers of what it means to evolve out of friendships you still care about, the guilt that comes with letting go, and the integrity it takes to be honest with yourself when the connection no longer aligns.Some friendships were only meant to witness your becoming.And once you’ve become, it’s okay to keep walking.Stay connected: • TikTok → / lifeinfocuswithsuttida • Instagram → / suttidalifeinfocus • Website → https://suttida.com • Download the Healing & Growth Workbook → https://stan.store/lifeinfocuswithsut...
You don’t owe anyone the version of you that made them comfortable.Today’s episode of Life in Focus dives into what really happens when you start setting boundaries without apology.If you’ve ever been called selfish for saying no, cold for protecting your peace, or “different now” just because you stopped overgiving—this one’s for you.We’ll unpack:Why people take your boundaries personally (spoiler: it’s not about you)How fawning and over-functioning are actually trauma responsesThe nervous system rewiring that happens when you stop abandoning yourselfReal stories from my marriage that show what healthy boundaries look like in practiceThis episode is a reminder that you can love people deeply and still say, “That doesn’t work for me.”You can care without carrying. You can stay kind without staying small.Listen until the end for a reflection question to help you identify where you’re still mistaking self-abandonment for connection.Stay connected: • TikTok → https://www.tiktok.com/@lifeinfocuswithsuttida • Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/suttidalifeinfocus • Website → https://suttida.com • Download the Healing & Growth Workbook → https://stan.store/lifeinfocuswithsuttida/p/get-the-healing--growth-workbook
We don’t talk enough about the kind of love that drains you.
The kind that feels generous on the surface but slowly erodes your sense of self.In this episode, I share a story about a friendship that mirrored my oldest wounds — the part of me that believed love had to be earned through effort. It’s about overgiving, emotional exhaustion, and what happens when connection becomes conditional on your capacity to carry it.
If you’ve ever found yourself confusing being needed with being loved, this one’s for you. It’s not about shame — it’s about clarity, reciprocity, and finally learning how to give without losing yourself.
