On this episode Laura and Steph discuss agency vs limitations when it comes to women's boundaries in society. The circle explore the challenges and necessity for boundaries in both professional and personal life; guilt and fear associated with women setting lack of boundaries.

Are women more socialised to have less boundaries and how can this be overcome?!

After three weeks away, we’re back in the circle and diving straight into our new series: Women & Boundaries.

In this episode, we reflect on where we first learned about boundaries, and the complicated ways they showed up in our lives. We share stories of when our boundaries were crossed, and the times we crossed others’, and how those experiences shaped us.

We also talk about what it means to keep our boundaries clear today, and how it feels to be around people who don’t seem to have boundaries of their own. It’s a raw and honest conversation to kick off a powerful new season, and we’re so glad to be back with you.

In this final Pulse episode of our Women & Friendship series, we reflect on Puja’s beautiful guest episode and look back at the lessons we’ve uncovered throughout the season. We return to the conversation about male–female friendships, and open up about the unique dynamics in female friendships when one friend is gay and what boundaries mean in those contexts.

We also catch you up on our lives over the past few weeks. Steph shares a surprising and powerful encounter with a tarot reader, who gave her the exact message she needed from the universe. Laura opens her heart about the recent passing of her father and how the strength of friendship has carried her through this major life event.

This is an episode of reflection, raw honesty, and gratitude for the circles that hold us.

In this episode, we sit in circle with our friend Puja for a conversation full of laughter, honesty, and heart. Puja shares how friendship, for her, means being truly seen and accepted having people who celebrate your successes and hold space for your authentic self. She also opens up about setting strong boundaries, being intentional with her energy, and her ruthlessness in choosing the friends she keeps close.

We explore the importance of female friendship in her life, but also touch on the role of male friendships and how they can bring a different balance of support. It’s a heartfelt, funny, and empowering conversation about what it means to build the kind of friendships that shape us, sustain us, and remind us of who we are.

In this episode, we dive deep into the complexities of friendships especially between men and women. We share how we personally navigate male–female dynamics, and what loyalty and betrayal look like through our lens. From personal stories of friendship breakups to the painful process of healing, we explore how trust is broken… and whether it can truly be rebuilt. Steph opens up about giving second chances, while Laura reflects on why she chooses not to rekindle certain friendships. We also own up to the mistakes we’ve made ourselves, and discuss what it takes to repair a bond after we’ve been the one at fault.

It’s an honest, unfiltered conversation about connection, boundaries, and the lessons friendship teaches us.

From the early connections that shaped our identities to the deep bonds we form in adulthood, we explore why we prioritise our girls, how we deal with unspoken expectations, and even how we handle the subtle signs of betrayal when they appear. It’s honest, it’s tender, and it’s all part of the sisterhood.
