Amy and Kat respond to a listener who went through a traumatic season that deeply impacted her marriage, friendships, and sense of capacity. While focusing on healing, couples therapy, and an intense grad school program, she pulled back from friends — and now, as she begins to reconnect, she’s carrying guilt for not showing up like she used to. They talk about whether we owe our friends explanations during seasons of survival, and how to navigate friendships that were strained while you were doing the best you could. Together, they explore the balance between honoring your own healing and acknowledging the hurt of others, how to communicate without over-explaining, and how to discern when a friendship needs repair, patience, or a gentle letting go.
