Motherhood changes everything… Including your friendships.


Join Shawna and Cara for an honest conversation about losing friends, making new ones, and navigating the loneliness that comes with evolving as a person and a mom. 


Perfect for mothers feeling stuck between old friendships that no longer fit and new ones that haven't formed yet.


TLFMTR (Too LONG for Mom to read):

  • You can love someone deeply but still outgrow the friendship - and that's okay

  • Making new friends as an adult mom is awkward for everyone, not just you

  • You're the average of the five people you spend most time with - choose wisely

  • People often love you "within the limits of what they believe is possible"

  • The loneliness of the "in-between" space isn't forever if you keep growing


What friendships in your life feel like they're holding you back from becoming who you're meant to be, and how can you honor both your growth and your love for these people?


Remember, you're not broken if your friendships have changed since becoming a mom - you're evolving. And you deserve relationships that celebrate your growth, not limit it.
