The Value of Friendships for Women in Midlife | Over 50 & Flourishing

[@dominiquesachsetv]

Just letting you know that I added the book list we mentioned in the description portion of the video. Just click "show more" above. Thanks!

[@CherylBerryl]

I really enjoyed this "video-cast". I think that in the "long game" there is honestly Nothing more important in a woman's life (outside of her children) than her deep connections with other like minded women. Even IF a woman has a GREAT relationship with a man/partner/husband/wife, there honestly is No substitute for a deep heartfelt friendship relationship. And this should be honored & treasured.

[@energeticsoulhealer888]

This. Was. GREAT. Your Mom brought you both together so you'd have support during her transition, and a friend to enjoy when she's no longer here . Beautiful timing. Divine timing. ❤️

[@CarTubeVibes]

Great to know that it's still possible to make authentic friendships in this life stage!

[@zsofiakohalmi4186]

Women connecting and supporting each other is pure power ❤

[@trisharogers4342]

Hi Dominique, I enjoyed this podcast so much. Thank you so, so much, to you and Holly! I went to Miraval eight years ago when I was going through a lot of emotional upheaval. They were holding a wellness, mindfulness, retreat, and partner with More magazine. It is one of the best things I ever did for myself. I am proud to this day of how I put myself outside of my comfort zone. I did a zip line, I did a 3 1/2 mile hike in the desert, and did a floating meditation, where we hung from the rafters and silks. Of course, the camaraderie with the other woman was just terrific. I bought myself two things in their gift shop that I see every day one is on my fridge, it’s a magnet that says life begins at the end of your comfort zone. I also bought a heart shaped rock that says remember on it. I have that on my bathroom counter And every time I see it, I remember what strength I am capable of, emotionally, and physically.

[@lindabloss594]

This brought so much to me today! Please pray that God will send a precious friend into my life! You girls blessed me and made me laugh which I rarely do because of my situation! I have great faith as well and as you’ve said, this is pretty rare in todays world! God bless you abundantly! Hugs and loves!

[@bridgetteague5874]

Wouldn't it be great to have a close friend 🥳

[@Erika-Coach]

@@bridgetteague5874it sure would 🙏

[@mandybradley3079]

It’s difficult the older you are. The women at churches I’ve gone to never want a friendship away from church. And they are so judgmental.

[@ari3lz3pp]

I am in my late 30s but I feel forming new friendships has become such a challenge. But this perspective from the video helps me realize it's part of this segment of my life, and lifestyle. The friends I'm closest to are primarily my husband's friends, and friends from Middle school/elementary. But it's just intermittent contact. They are all over the U.S. My husband and I both have felt betrayed and abandoned by friends. We ARE the best of friends which is such a blessing. ❤ We are so busy with our family and work that we honestly don't have much time when we do meet new friends. But it's always in the back of my mind that "what if" we finally have less work, or kids fly the best etc and we realize we have an emptiness. This video is very comforting. Including Holley's experience with medical challenges of course!!!! Strong woman. ❤ I feel the same way about sharing when it comes to my faith. I try hard not to come off pushy with my Christianity, but it gives me such joy to think maybe I could help someone explore that. Because it's brought so much to my life and legitimately saved my life, my marriage, and sanity. But I know a lot of people are offended by that and boundaries *are* vital and knowing when to pull back. 🕊️ God bless 🙏✨

[@ruthsierra7400]

At 56yr, married for 26yrs recently divorced, lost all my friends and part of my family, feels very lonely but I enjoy your podcast and always looking forward to your next one. Its very empowering. Thank you. Hopefully next year you will have the Miraval retreat and can join .

[@sunflowers6172]

52, going through the separation now. Just trying to keep my head above water. Staying strong 💪

[@sziami09]

You are both such warm-hearted people, no wonder you are friends! 🩵

[@shoshanachavab]

So my best friend left us because she was getting very Ill and could not contemplate what was going to happen to her body. Next year I will be 80 and have some acquaintances but not a best friend. I changed countries about 16 years ago and this was my second best friend who left us. So life is not easy and I have my own health problems and it just seems too hard to again make the effort. My husband d also left this world 26 years ago so that is still so hard to handle. Oh well I really enjoyed seeing the two of,you together. ❤

[@bethbridgers5174]

Hi Dominique, I would love to hear women discuss how they cope with adult child estrangement. I know many people going through it, as am I. I hear it is becoming a very common family issue. I am 65, an evangelist for fifteen years, and waiting for my prodigals to come home, so to speak, It has been gut wrenching to say the least. Thank you for what you do, we need more of this type of encouragement to make it in this life. God bless, Beth

[@giiggii11]

I feel your pain, I'm 64 my daughter and I speak however she seems so distant. She's now married has really no time for me. I've been coping only because of my faith. Our children don't really don't belong to us, they're with us only for a short while. Maybe one day when she's older she may realize what we've missed out on. I take solace in the fact that I'm grateful for the time I had with her and that we're all in the hands of God. He ultimately takes care of everything ❤️

[@goconnor0304]

I am single and 62 and just moved within the last 2 months. I realized that I miss friendships of worth. While I do have a monthly call with my longest and dear friend, I need face-to-face interactions as well. So I contacted two women friends in my area and let them know that I hoped we could hang out together - at least once a month. I am in a new phase, and need to figure out what I can do now to grow and what works for me now vs 10 years ago. KZbin videos like this help give me more insight to where I need to go, to do, and question who I want to be. Thanks!

[@SaRo-r8j]

I became a SWA Flight Attendant at 53 the greatest challenge of my life yet so rewarding. I was so eager to look up Holly and see where she is based and possibly fly with her but so sorry to hear she isn’t a FA. I agree God has something else for her. I didn’t think I would make it. It’s not an easy job but can’t see myself doing anything else. So happy you both found each other what a gift from The Lord!

[@kimberleychavelle9426]

Your pod cast was raw, intimate and honest ❤ the best pod cast out there! Holly is a gem I’m so glad you met. Friendships are hard to find these days, you are definitely blessed. I recently had bilateral breast cancer and I was lucky to have my husband but wished I had a girlfriend to talk to. Holly went through so much bless her heart. Thanks Dominique for this ❤

[@terridykstra1946]

You two are so blessed to have found each other. I miss my best friend who passed away 12 years ago. I also had a prophylactic mastectomy with reconstruction so I can relate to a lot of what Holley was saying. I am not going through a divorce but my husband has early onset Alzheimers so I feel like my life is on the spin cycle. My career and role as a caregiver leave me no time to make friends. Thanks for this. The power of sisterhood indeed!

[@ladyesther]

I'm right here with you. Years of pain, isolation, and the added responsibility of a child with disabilities. Extremely isolating with not many friends and those who can actually understand the weight of bearing. I am doing it limping along the way. P.s. I am so tired of being a pretzel.

[@rebeccachapman2043]

I am so fortunate to have a sister (biological type) that we can share everything with each other. This podcast reminded me so much of how special and sacred that kind of connection is. I am so grateful for your sharing these conversations with us, Dominique. Thank you.

[@carolynhamilton3316]

I loved this pod cast and it also made me cry. I miss my best friend. we had a similar friendship. We had a falling out and i miss her. My other two friends have passed away and i miss them terribly. Im a senior now and i find that lonliness creeps in and boredom. Im so glad you found a great friend Dominique. Reminds me so much the fun and craziness my best friend and i shared for so many years. Enjoy and cherish it. . This was a great fun and very emotional pod cast. ❤

[@beckiadcock5350]

Carolyn, almost nothing is worth losing a best friend. Call her and see if you can patch things up even if both of you think it is the other’s fault. Good luck to you.

[@annahayes1007]

It's so tough to lose a best friend. Mine just started excluding me. She walked into my house one day and mentioned that (due to work) we had not been together as friends for quite a while. It is so painful. She seems so hard. I am a believer, she is the opposite, so I tell myself that maybe this was meant to be. Still, painful. I hope you find someone. I'm 72. I moved to France 12 years ago, and that makes it even a bit more difficult.

[@carolynhamilton3316]

@@annahayes1007 sorry about your friend. It is difficult to lose a friend. I was in Strasburg France in April with a river cruise. Went to a flea mkt there. Loved it. Maybe you were meant to meet a wonderful French friend to share fun with. I read that sometimes friends come into our lives to help us thru the journey of life and may not always be meant to be forever. It still hurts tho.

[@kymmorello6459]

Lovely! Nothing like friendships with women and supporting each other.

[@honestreviewsonly1915]

I have always been a girlfriend person, but finding out that some as not as nice, loyal or sincere as they seem, has been a real eye opener. Wonderful if you find a woman of integrity and with the same mindset and as trustworthy as you.

[@gailjones9461]

I appreciate my alone time and also being with people. I have found that many women who retire end up going back to some form of work to have a sense of purpose. Most of my friends from my youth are now living in other parts of the country so there is that. Though married my husband works long hours so I have had to learn to do my own life.

I never comment but I’m watching this video and I just want you both to be my friends. This whole conversation resonated so much with me. Thank you!

[@AllThingsSoul]

I must admit, I am and have been, for many years, the worst friend to others. I have been completely immersed in starting a business so I could for once in my life, earn money from doing something I love. Every job I ever had was a bore and daily reminder of my failure. I did not value friendships. Well, it's never too late as long as I'm living! Thank you for this video. It makes me realize the value of friendships.

[@JessicaMillerNashville]

Hearing real life women going through real life things who don't have a huge job title is super empowering and relatable for a lot of women! I think this is excellent because Holley is going through something a lot of women can relate to. You could probably interview all the women from the women's retreat and your viewers would love it! Including myself! The subject of friendship seems to be a hot topic these days so thank you for touching on it!

[@crystalhuffer8687]

Thank you so much for this- absolutely what I needed to hear today! I have been very blessed throughout my life with many good friends, but most have gone away. And I am now ok with that- Knowing that God puts people into our lives for a moment, a time, a season- For what we need at that time in our lives. I have two very precious women in my life now- that I know I can call on at any time of day or night and they will be there for me! We laugh and cry together- friendships I can not live without! Thank you again, for this podcast to help us feel ok in this stage of life. (I am a fellow 50something woman with so many changes going on in this life- menopause, aging parents, becoming empty nesters, seeing the light of retirement in the future…) May God bless you both !! ❤

[@linneasimchah1621]

Really inspiring to witness a BFF connection that materialized so quickly! While I experienced a fast connection like that with my husband of 18 years, I haven't had a _mutual_ fast bond with any female yet (I'm 46 y/o). I want solid female platonic friendships that are mutually supportive/beneficial. When Holley talked about her tendency to not cry, I thought back to when I was first learning to cry in my early adult years. As an infant, I was adopted into a German family, and Germans are not known for warmth--my parents did not like their kids crying, and I can remember them sternly telling me "stop crying". So in my 20s, I had to learn to allow myself to express tears if I was sad/hurting. Now, I view crying as sort of the opposite of laughing: they both last for a brief moment whenever the intensity of an emotion reaches its crescendo. The moment comes and goes, as far as the physical expression of an intense emotion. I usually don't listen to long podcasts, but I did the entire length of this one. Completely laughed when Holley talked about sitting on her couch days after the retreat, meanwhile Dominique was doing a ton of things. Holley offered to bring over some wine or "how can I help?" _because I'm going back to my couch!_ Loved that. No apologies. Live and let live.

[@holleydean6128]

This podcast was very REAL. I’ve never been on a platform this big. I love how the LORD works. A friendship that bloomed from pain and life change turning into a podcast for growth and change. D let’s change how women CAN see themselves!! 🌺 I love all of the comments they have been so empowering for me. Blessings to each and everyone of you for watching and enjoying HOLLEY❤

[@juliadavid3637]

It's absolutely 💯 one of my favorite podcasts that you've brought to us. It was so interesting to me how in the beginning I was thinking what a beautiful new best friend you have and she was so genuinely beautiful. I would never have imagined all she went through with her breast health, just a gentle reminder to me that we are all going through something. God's blessings, Dominique 🙏

[@SueB402]

This was an amazing podcast. I really enjoyed listening. The connection and genuine love for one another is very transparent between you and Holly. My parents used to say the same to me.. that if you can count true friendships on one hand, you’re very blessed. Loved how much was shared and Holly’s openness about personal health issues. She’s inspiring and real. Thank you both for your candor as well as your humor. Keep these kind of talks coming! 🙌😊🩷

[@elizabethboggs9058]

A great podcast for women who really need friends who are willing to listen….sometimes it’s hard to be positive…..we need encouragement and understanding…not judgement. We don’t want or need sympathy…. Thank you for this amazing opportunity.

[@mrcdplsrl]

This is my favorite podcast so far (except the ones with Mrs. Audrey 💕). I’m still looking for my BFF and I may have found her but our friendship is new. I’m forcing myself to get out and connect with other like-minded ladies in hopes of finding new friends. This podcast definitely helped and I appreciate you, Dominique.

[@susan8471]

When you get my age, you start losing friends....in mid 70's...and it's hard to find new ones at this stage. Keep your friends close....it means a lot to older people to have them.

It's wonderful that you Dominique has found a sister friend.❤ I find it so draining a friend that is compatible to me. I'm a single happy person at 53 for medical reasons no kids, but I am an introvert so I love my space and the friends that I meet.... leave me emotionally drained. I am taking care of my mom who is 84 and I am comfortable where I am... search for companionship is still there. And let Holly know we all have been there I ran out of gas and it was at night busy intersection and the car behind me had pushed me to the side and I was terrified it was that night I had the windows rolled up he went to go get me some gas I never got out of my car he was my angel .... blessed and I thanked him but I actually wasn't able to know who he was and I just wanted to go home I was tired from a long day at work and was very drained. I was blessed and I really feel it was my angel Archangel watching over me that night LOL❤ best wishes on your journey U2!☕️🤗😘🌻

I really appreciate the friendship, and I am open and attentive to the signs and in my 40 years I bring the ones I conquered like precious pearls, ( I am Brazilian married to an American ) Leaving your friends and family and going to live in another country is as if your life became a blank book, but I believe that in due time I will win a darling for a good laugh, and legitimate support. Because there are blessings in that sharing.

I once had a toxic friendship and for years I've had trouble making friends. This was very thought-provoking. This toxic "friendship" scared me, it lasted for 15 years I felt so venerable and influenced by this person she didn't have my best interest at heart and was very critical of me.

Genuine friendship, especially female friendship, is a gift worth cultivating and nurturing. You don’t need quantity, but you do need quality friendships. I’m grateful for the quality friendships I have. Oftentimes most women focus on their families/partners and let friendships stay on the back burner. Sadly, friendships end for that reason. I’m grateful for my genuine friends that God has given me as a gift. Thank you ladies, for sharing your vulnerability and transparency as much as you can.

I had a best friend for over 20 years. Then all of a sudden I felt her pull away. I took it really hard, and continued sending birthday cards and sympathy cards, she never acknowledged them, so finally after a couple of years, I had to accept the fact that she didn't want to be my friend. I went through a lot of self doubt during the aftermath of this event. I finally recalled things she said, like: I don't feel like I fit in anywhere, in any groups or even at church. I really think she pulled away from everyone back then and I don't know that she isn't still stuck in that same spot. I still mourn the loss of this friend because we shared our love for Christian music and for God, and I never have had another friend like her. I would like to find another friend that would stand the test of time. I have friends, but none as close as this friendship.

I found out after my relationship with a narcissist ended that I had repressed crying too. So I purposely found very sad movies so that I could cry and it was so therapeutic!

[@beautifulsurprise9424]

How do you know if you're in a relationship with a narcissist? I'm asking because I think my best friend may be as well. The things she feels comfortable telling me about this behavior seem so awful and I know she doesn't tell me everything. I'm just wondering if that's what her husband is. I want to give her some reading material and maybe try to open her eyes as to what it is she's really dealing with because I think he definitely could be, but I don't want to be wrong and don't want to waste her time if that isn't it.
