A Letter to the Woman Ending a Friendship // Kiki Rocha

 

This summer, I’m focusing in on the topic of friendship with other women, and in this first episode of the series, I’m sitting down with Kiki Rocha.

Kiki is a Catholic woman on a mission to rebuild culture. She is an overcomer, and it is through her story of resilience that she has found her calling to coach women in wholeness by cultivating their self-worth, mindset, and dreams! Speaking is another one of her many loves. Having been brought up in a single parent home, being an abortion survivor and a sexual abuse survivor, she has much to share on how the modern-day woman is created for more. Bring her some babies and guacamole and you’ll make her happy!

You’ll recognize Kiki’s voice from a past episode of this podcast, “A Letter to the Woman Healing from Sexual Abuse,” which I’ll link in today’s show notes so you can get to know Kiki’s story as a Catholic woman and hear her reflections on the feminine genius. 

When you open the new Sisterhood book, you’ll find Kiki’s reflection on healing in friendship, which kicks off the first chapter in Sisterhood which talks about examining and healing your own heart for friendship.

If you’re wondering how to navigate a friendship breakup or you’re still stinging from a friendship that fell apart, sister, this letter is for you.

Topics we talked about in this episode:

  • How past friendship wounds can impact current friendships

  • Authenticity and vulnerability in friendship with other women

  • Saints to get to know who have been through friendship breakups themselves

  • Communicating boundaries and expectations in friendships with other women

  • What to do when friends ask for advice in conversation but don’t take your words to heart

  • How to decide when to set a boundary in a friendship and when to let a friendship go

  • Why we should avoid the gut reaction to label someone as toxic
