5. Friends Part 2: Toxic Friendships
Show Notes

Honestly, I feel like it’s becoming more and more normal for people to become toxic.

 So, before we get started, let’s talk about what toxic friends are. The word, “toxic” in the dictionary means, “extremely harsh, malicious or harmful.” And honestly that is exactly what a toxic friend is. They are harsh, malicious and they hurt us.

 A lot of times, toxic friends don’t necessarily want to be mean, but because they are hurting so badly on the inside, the only way they see to make themselves feel better is to make others feel worse.

 There’s a quote that says, “Blowing out someone else’s candle will never make yours shine brighter.” And this is exactly what toxic people do…they are trying to blow out our candles to make theirs shine brighter.

Listen in and learn more about what toxic friends are, how to avoid toxic friends and what to do if a friend of yours starts to become toxic.
