They were best friends—the kind who text all day, laugh until they cry, and show up for each other in every chapter of life. Miranda was a bridesmaid at Nadia’s wedding. She stood up in front of the crowd and called Nadia her sister. So when Nadia moved two doors down from Miranda’s house, it felt like the natural next step. Why wouldn’t you want to live near your soul friend? But then… something shifted.

Invitations stopped coming. Texts went unanswered. Nadia couldn’t name what had changed—but she could feel it. And then came the moment that confirmed everything: they saw each other at a mutual event, and when Miranda locked eyes with Nadia, her face didn’t light up. It fell.

In this episode, Nadia shares the slow, confusing heartbreak of losing a friend who once felt like family.

NADIA MAHJOURI is a Moroccan Australian writer, counsellor, and group facilitator specialising in maternal mental health. Her professional background is in health policy, governance and academia, where her research focused on ethics and feminist philosophy.
