Friends at 40 (part 1)
As we enter our 40s, our friendships begin to look different. We’re less interested in surface-level connections and more focused on relationships that support our growth and align with our values. In my latest blog post, I explore how friendships evolve during this stage of life and why it’s okay to let go of what no longer serves us. For more on navigating the beauty and challenges of friendships at 40, be sure to listen to the full episode of The Good Daughter Society Podcast.
As we get older, friendships can change in ways we didn’t expect.
In our 20s, it feels like we can’t have enough friends. We’re out every weekend, meeting new people, and forming connections easily. But by the time we hit our 30s and 40s, we often find ourselves reevaluating what friendship really means—and who we want to spend our precious time with.
In this episode of The Good Daughter Society Podcast, I talk about the evolution of friendships as we get older, especially in our 40s, and the challenges that come with it. It’s not just about having friends; it’s about having the right friends.
At this stage in life, we start to realize that we don’t have the energy for superficial relationships or toxic dynamics. We crave real connection, deep conversations, and friends who truly see us—not the version we once were, but the version we are now.
But here's the thing: building those kinds of friendships takes time, intention, and sometimes, a bit of letting go.
In this episode, I share:
How friendships shift as we enter our 40s and why that can feel both freeing and lonely.
The importance of surrounding ourselves with people who align with our values and support our growth.
Why it’s okay to outgrow relationships and how to gracefully let them go without guilt.
The magic that happens when you make room for quality over quantity in your friendships.
Whether you’re in a season of deep connection or navigating the loneliness that can come with this stage of life, I hope this episode reminds you that it’s okay to be picky about who you let in.
Quality friendships take effort, but they’re worth it.

The Art of Starting Again
Starting over can feel daunting, but it’s often where our greatest growth happens. In my latest blog post, I dive into why starting again isn’t failure—it’s a powerful act of self-trust and evolution. If you’ve ever felt stuck or afraid to try again, this post will remind you that the path forward is often a series of fresh starts. For more on embracing the art of starting again, listen to the full episode of The Good Daughter Society Podcast.
Starting again is one of the most powerful—and humbling—things we can do.
It can feel like failure, like we’re back to square one, like we’re not “getting it right” or “figuring it out” fast enough. But what if starting again is actually the key to growth, freedom, and the kind of authenticity we crave?
In this episode of The Good Daughter Society Podcast, I dive deep into the art of starting again. I share my own experiences of having to press reset, not once, but many times—and what I’ve learned along the way.
The truth is, starting over isn’t about doing it perfectly. It’s about giving ourselves permission to evolve and change without shame or guilt. It’s about releasing the pressure to have it all figured out, and instead embracing the beauty of the journey.
I talk about:
How starting again doesn’t mean you’ve failed; it means you’re listening to yourself.
Why we often resist the idea of a fresh start, and how to move past the fear.
The freedom that comes with letting go of who you thought you should be and stepping into who you are becoming.
If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or afraid to try again, this episode will remind you that the path forward isn’t always linear. In fact, it often looks like a winding road full of new beginnings.
