Ep 4 - Friendships
Welcome to the Divorced AF Podcast with your host, Audrey Alice! In each episode, we dive deep into the journey of reclaiming your identity after divorce. We’ll cover everything from co-parenting and career moves to rediscovering who you are and even exploring love again. This space is for every divorced mom ready to take control of her life and live it on her terms. Let’s get started!
Divorce changes everything—including your friendships. Some people step up, some disappear, and some just don’t know what to say. So how do you navigate friendships post-divorce? Who do you keep, and who do you let go?
In this episode of Divorced AF, Audrey dives into the messy, beautiful, and sometimes painful world of friendships after divorce. She gets real about the shifts that happen, the people who surprise you (for better or worse), and how to find your true circle. Because let’s be honest—not everyone is meant to come with you into your next chapter.
If you’ve ever felt like divorce came with a friend cleanse you didn’t sign up for, this episode is for you.
When Friendships Shift After Divorce
Audrey opens up about how divorce often reveals who’s truly in your corner. Some friends stick around, others fade away, and then there are the ones who make it clear they were never really there to begin with.
Who’s Really Your Friend?
Not all friendships are built to last. Audrey breaks down how to tell the difference between people who support you and those who were only around for convenience. Divorce forces you to take a hard look at your relationships—and that’s not always a bad thing.
The Awkwardness of Mutual Friends
What happens when you and your ex share the same friend group? Audrey discusses the awkward reality of navigating mutual friendships post-divorce and why it’s okay if some of those relationships naturally fade.
Letting Go of the Friendships That No Longer Serve You
Just like a marriage, some friendships have an expiration date. Audrey shares why it’s important to release relationships that no longer align with your growth and how to do it without guilt.
Finding Your Post-Divorce Tribe
Not all friendships will survive divorce—but the right ones will. Audrey encourages listeners to seek out the people who uplift, support, and genuinely care about their new chapter. Because sometimes, divorce doesn’t just take people away—it makes room for better ones.
Rebuilding Your Support System
Friendship breakups can be just as painful as romantic ones. Audrey offers advice on how to rebuild a strong, authentic support system with people who truly have your back.
Losing friends after divorce can feel like another heartbreak, but here’s the truth: the people who are meant to be in your life will stay. And the ones who don’t? They were never your people to begin with.
You’re stepping into a new chapter. Make sure the people around you deserve a seat at the table.
