Should you cut them off?

In the last episode, we talked about how to inspire your partner to grow—even when it feels like you’re on different pages.

Today, we’re shifting the focus to friendships—specifically, what to do when it feels like you’ve evolved… and they haven’t.

Maybe their behavior no longer aligns with your values.

Maybe they’re stuck in the past and can’t meet you where you are today.

Or maybe… they did something that feels unforgivable.

And it’s left you wondering:

Is it time to let this person go?

That might sound like the right question. But from The Spiritual Perspective, it might not be the most helpful one.

This episode is for anyone sitting in that tension—between honoring the past and being honest about the present.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

  • A subtle shift that makes boundary-setting feel more natural

  • Why some friendships quietly stop feeling aligned

  • How trying to “stay spiritual” can sometimes lead to self-betrayal

  • What to check in with yourself before making any big decisions

  • And a grounded way to move forward—without guilt, resentment, or drama

I hope this perspective helps you navigate friendship shifts with more clarity, compassion, and self-trust.
