Ons is sekerlik almal al een of ander tyd uit die bloute deur iemand geïgnoreer. Sonder waarskuwing. Sonder verduideliking. Of dit nou op die speelgrond, by die werk, of in ’n verhouding gebeur, dit bly ’n ontstellende ervaring. Een oomblik is daar ’n band, die volgende oomblik stilte. Geen verduideliking, geen antwoorde, geen afsluiting. In Episode 13 gesels ek met kommunikasiespesialis, sake-coach en besturende direkteur van Pro-Active Communications Hanrie Fridjhon oor “ghosting”, of spookloop. ’n Ou gedragspatroon wat vandag meer bekend is weens sosiale media. Al ervaar albei partye dit op verskillende maniere, kan die emosionele impak vir albei ewe swaar wees. Hanrie ontleed hoekom mense ander spookloop, hoe ons dit kan verstaan, hanteer en hoe om die stukke op te tel en aan te beweeg.

No Contact, No reasons. Ghosting has no winners.

We’ve all been ghosted. Ignored without warning or explanation. Whether it happens on the playground, at work, or in a relationship, the experience is unsettling. One minute there’s connection. The next, silence. No explanations, no answers, no closure. In Episode 13, communication specialist, business coach and managing director of Pro-Active Communications, Hanrie Fridjhon and I discuss ghosting. An age-old behaviour made more common by social media. While both sides experience it differently, the emotional toll can be equally intense. Hanrie unpacks why people ghost, how we can make sense of it, and learn how to move on.
