How do you measure up as a friend? This episode of Levelheaded Talk with Dr. Andrea Vitz and Jon Leon Guerrero is all about self-responsibility in friendships. Dr. Vitz challenges listeners to take a good, hard look at their friendships, asking if they are as supportive to their friends as their friends are to them. It's a thought-provoking conversation that pushes you to reflect on whether you're truly present in your relationships or if you're just going through the motions.
The hosts encourage listeners to ask themselves some tough questions: Are you genuinely interested in your friends' lives, or do you find yourself always steering the conversation back to yourself? Have you shown appreciation and gratitude, or are you guilty of taking more than you give? Dr. Vitz makes it clear that this isn't about creating guilt or shame—it's about gaining awareness and making positive changes.
By taking responsibility for our actions and attitudes, we can improve not only our friendships but also our overall emotional sobriety. Listeners are encouraged to engage in honest conversations with their friends, asking for feedback and being open to hearing it without getting defensive. The idea is to see feedback as a gift that can help us grow and strengthen our connections.
This episode is a call to action for anyone looking to deepen their friendships and become a better version of themselves. So, how have you been showing up in your friendships lately?
