- What is a soul friend? Soul friends are people whose connection with your soul goes beyond ordinary friendships; often, the bond is so strong that words cannot describe the connection.
- True friends leave you inspired and energized. One way to test how profound a friendship is: when you separate from them, do you feel more invigorated? Or filled with more self-doubt?
- Make time to express your gratitude to your friends and family. There might be no greater joy in the world than simply telling someone how much they mean to you and what you love about them.
- Moving on can be an expression love. Sometimes the greatest act of love is knowing when to let go of someone.
- Cherish all friendships, even those that hurt you. In a world of billions of people, our souls collide with those who teach us, whether through love or loss, shaping us and expanding our capacity for empathy and deep connection.
Episode Quotes
Even though some people don’t stay in your life forever, maybe they made your life beautiful in some way, and that is so powerful.

When was the last time you looked your friend in the eyes and said — I appreciate you and everything that you do for me. I love that you are in my life and I’m so thankful for you.

My female friendships have carried me through my life. They are the ones that have helped me truly become who I am, and who I’m going to be.

There is a very different feeling inside of you when you share a friendship with someone vs. when you’re in a romantic relationship. It’s almost like being even more seen when you’re just friends.

We have to stop giving ourselves to people that aren’t giving to us. We have to stop giving so much of ourselves to people that don’t show appreciation.
Jacqueline Whitney
Loving ourselves the way we so unconditionally and unapologetically love our friends. We are deserving of that love and that presence within our own souls as well. In learning that about ourselves, we know and open our eyes to all that someone might be able to give us and mirror within us. When you know yourself, I genuinely believe that you call in those people but you are able to see them when they are standing right in front of you.
