[@limukiikamathi8162]

Lydia is such a deep thinker and analytical ! It's mind blowing 😊

[@k3ygvrv]

Guess the fact that she was raised in the UK has a part to play in her being so opinionated. Western world kids are usually so opinionated, i wish that was the same in Kenya

[@limukiikamathi8162]

Yes this could be a contributing factor. But I also generally appreciate how she looks at things from different angle/s. Then I am just like woow I didn't even think of this in that way.

I feel like Lydia and Joan are soulmates in terms of friendship

[@shade_ofnite7autopsychogra411]

They have chemistry kabisa ❤️❤️. You can tell they respect and love eachother and give space for the other. And seeing clearly that they are different individuals. Their essence is oozing support, reciprocity, acknowledgement, acceptance.

[@neches.a]

Before dumping your stress on your friend, you can check with them if they are in a mental space to be a shoulder to lean on. I have learnt to verbally say when I'm not able to be a shoulder to lean on, but do a follow up when I'm a float

I have never had a friend who are on my path and at any point in my life nor do I have a sister . This means I have led a very lonely , friendless life . That’s why over 25 helps me understand that kind of dynamic .

[@gracemash5600]

Am glad someone touched on this part of friendship. It's something friends don't talk about often

[@kenyafinest964]

I feel Jules about being the single one in a group of married and partnered friends. I generally pull away from people when I’m struggling with something and find it easy to talk to a therapist. I’m very guarded about opening up to people due to being burnt in previous friendships(and they are very understanding off it). I will show up for friends and if I’m not able to I let them know. 1 or 2 Friendships have also ended as my being single seemed to be an issue. It was the judgement and making it a pity thing and downright being condescending. I had to choose my well-being. It’s ok for a friendship to run its course. I am also very mindful about sharing my wins, I would not want to overwhelm anyone in the event they are not experiencing highs in their lives.

[@barnettedavids7653]

You sound like a good friend ❣️

[@doreenmollo1889]

me too

[@m23120]

I like your mindsets

[@brendarutto]

Girrrl the last point is so me. I don't overshare my wins because I don't know what my friend(s) is/are going through at that moment. I have always thought I am bad for feeling low when my things are stagnant and my friends are winning (I want them to win, but I also want to win). But this episode has shown me that we are only human. My best friend on the other hand overshares her wins and she knows I am not doing great. It bothers me alot but this is where I clap for her and mute where and when I can to catch a breath.

[@malkiawaalego2552]

I like how Ivy notes when someone was saying something but didn’t get a chance to speak

[@winniewangui9661]

I love this collabo this conversation is very important now I'm okay with some of the decisions I've had to make recently considering where the friendship was taking me, having Lydia as a friend is a blessing she seems to be more understanding than judgemental which I really appreciate and it's rare to find.

[@itsjuliam]

I'm in the mute & clap stage. I make a point to have a bouquet of flowers delivered to congratulate that friend when she's winning then I step back into my own timeline.

[@felixmurunga9288]

The episode I didn't know I needed. So uplifting and assuring. Recently had to let go of my primary and only friend group. As an introvert I struggle but growth must happen. Managing expectations is important and it takes drumming up guts to be alone and be okay. Edify yourself for yourself and new authentic relationships ❤️😎

Another banger 😃 Lyd is my other half for sure and you lovelies are loveling🤩❤️ Healthy friendships and boundaries have to go hand in hand, I learned that much since I’m a therapist and an introvert like Shikie and I tend to take on too much but I learnt to not do that such that I’m left empty. Self care is important and you can’t be a good friend if your house is on fire sweethearts

[@magalienia6958]

Goodness Gracious! this show is the gift that keeps on giving with the TMI duo being the cherry on the already delicious sundae. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ the topic but most especially the part where in any given r/s, pple should clearly communicate what they expect/need/want from each other(realistically). Your friends are not clairvoyant nor are u, to expect pple to know what you want without telling them,so Speak It! The part abt the transitioning & navigating the muddy waters of friends/business, that happens alot even amongst siblings who own communal property. The first rule of thumb is knowing when to switch out ya sibling hat & pick up the business partner hat...if u can't do that,that's how family businesses end up crumbling. Thanks beautiful ladies, we enjoy u immensely. Watching Lydia listen so intently as someone speaks is beautiful.

In relation to the comment about support in business and your expectations from your friends, I would say I can understand if my friends can't afford to buy my products for the sake of buying them or just to support my business, but what I would say is that if they are ever going to buy a product that they know I am selling I expect them to buy it from me.
