Gratitude matters and it is more than just a fleeting feeling of thankfulness. It's a powerful practice that can transform your life.

B RESOURCES/LINKS Takeaways Thanksgiving is a time to embrace gratitude. Desiring more can lead to emptiness and dissatisfaction. Gratitude is a powerful tool for joy and fulfillment. Practicing gratitude can transform our lives. Contentment is not wanting more, but appreciating what we have. Complaining can destroy our sense of gratitude.

The holiday season is an opportunity to reflect on our blessings. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here. https://convoyofhope.org/bianca/ ⋇ Bianca’s new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option. https://amzn.to/3MO74OC ⋇ The Grit Don’t Quit Bible Study is now available. https://www.biancaolthoff.com/gdq ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors! ⋇ Subscribe to We’re Going There on your favorite podcast app so you don’t miss out on any of the great topics and conversations.

    Ep 175: The Evolution of Friendship: Growing Together, Growing Apart with Bianca Juarez Olthoff and Lauren Bronson Petrous
    Nov 18 2024
    What does true friendship mean to you? How do you know when it's time to let go of a friendship? Friend, I LOVE you! And I know that friendship is so important in our lives. That's why my BFF Lauren and I dive deep into the intricacies of friendship. We explore how to nurture, grow, and gracefully let go of relationships as we journey through life's different stages. We share personal insights on the complexities of relationships, emphasizing the importance of recognizing when it's time to let go of friendships that no longer serve us. Some key takeaways are: Intentionality is key: Friendship requires effort and conscious nurturing to thrive. Vulnerability is essential: Sharing our true selves with others deepens our connections. Friendships evolve: As we grow and change, our relationships may naturally shift or end. It's okay to let go: Sometimes, holding onto friendships that are no longer fulfilling can be detrimental to our well-being. Losing a friendship can be emotionally challenging, and it's important to allow ourselves to grieve. Share the dynamics of your relationships by tagging me @biancaolthoff and @laurenbronsonpetrous.

Vulnerability allows for deeper connections between friends. It's important to evaluate friendships regularly. Friendship requires risk and investment. Not everyone is meant to stay in your life forever. A friend audit can help clarify relationship dynamics. I stay too long in relationships. Friendships can be categorized as weeds, flowers, or trees. Seasonal friendships are valid and should be honored. Adaptability is crucial in friendships. Friendship is a choice, not an obligation. Boundaries are essential in protecting relationships. Mourning the end of a friendship is a necessary process. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here https://convoyofhope.org/bianca/ ⋇ Bianca’s new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option. https://amzn.to/3MO74OC ⋇ The Grit Don’t Quit Bible Study is now available. https://www.biancaolthoff.com/gdq ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors! ⋇ Subscribe to We’re Going There on your favorite podcast app so you don’t miss out on any of the great topics and conversations.
