In this episode, Jamie and Heather unpack the reality that we\u2019re not meant to be deeply connected to everyone. From understanding your natural capacity for relationships to identifying the different \u201crings\u201d of friendship, this conversation brings language to what many people feel but can\u2019t quite explain. We talk about what real vulnerability looks like (and what it doesn\u2019t), how to deepen the right friendships, and how to recognize when a relationship has shifted\u2014or needs to. &amp;nbsp; Show Notes: &amp;nbsp; Check out the book Made for People by Justin Whitmel Earley: https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Made-People-Drift-Loneliness-Friendship\/dp\/0310363004 &amp;nbsp; Learn more about Dunbar\u2019s number: &amp;nbsp;https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/future\/article\/20191001-dunbars-number-why-we-can-only-maintain-150-relationships &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; 00:00 \u2013 Intro 02:10 \u2013 Friendship Capacity &amp;amp; Circles 05:00 \u2013 Seasons of Friendship 08:15 \u2013 What Real Vulnerability Looks Like 12:00 \u2013 How to Build Deeper Friendships 15:30 \u2013 Friendship Levels &amp;amp; Expectations 16:00 \u2013 When Friendships End 21:30 \u2013 When a Friendship Becomes Unhealthy 24:30 \u2013 Hard Conversations vs. Creating Distance 30:00 \u2013 Covenant Friendship vs. Casual Friendship 36:30 \u2013 Expectations, Hurt, and Showing Up Well 41:45 \u2013 Closing Encouragement ","author_name":"In Motion Podcast","author_url":"https:\/\/churchonthemove.com\/inmotion","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/40624270\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/200125715"}
