Before our friends get sucked up into the motherhood vortex, we first grieve the loss to partnership. This episode unpacks the quiet heartbreak of losing a friend to a romantic relationship, why it cuts deeper than we admit and why letting go of a pick me woman is the healthiest thing you can do for your spirit.

If you’ve ever felt confused, rejected, or even ashamed for how deeply this loss affected you, especially as a single or child-free woman, this episode validates that experience. It also challenges the cultural hierarchy that places romantic relationships above all else and asks you to question whether you even subscribe to that value system.

It’s not about jealousy; it’s about realizing the friendship may have only existed as a placeholder until she found a partner. We explore how to process the loss, reclaim your self-respect, and intentionally build friendships with women who don’t disappear when romance enters the room.

This episode is both a reality check and a permission slip: to grieve, to get honest, and to raise your standards for the kind of friendships you allow in your life.

Andrea Bordeaux, coach, speaker, and guide in Feminine Wisdom, to unpack her bold and refreshing take on what it means to be a “selfish bitch.” Rather than something to avoid, Andrea reframes it as a necessary shift away from people-pleasing, self-abandonment, and over-giving, into a life rooted in self-devotion, boundaries, and truth.

Andrea Bordeaux reframes what it means to be a “selfish bitch," not as something negative, but as a radical act of self-devotion, boundaries, and personal power. She shares her journey from people-pleasing and societal conditioning to embodying the Divine Feminine and guiding other women to do the same. This conversation challenges women to stop performing for approval and start choosing themselves unapologetically.

As a single, childfree woman, I know how easy it is to fall into the habit of doing everything alone—because sometimes it feels easier than asking for help and being let down. But over the past few weeks, life threw some curveballs my way, and I realized just how powerful it is to have people I can lean on.

In this episode, I share why building community has been so important in my life, how the Single and Childfree Network gives women like us a space to support each other, and why asking for help isn’t a weakness—it’s part of thriving.

I talk about why we don’t have to face challenges solo, and how even when we do do things alone, we’re actually doing them together.
