Adult Friendship After Kids: Why It Changes (And How to Find Your People Again)

What if friendship isn’t meant to look the same in every season of your life? In this deeply honest and affirming episode of Help Them Bloom, host Evelyn Mendal sits down with Rebecca Smith, founder of Mamala Organics, for a powerful conversation about adult friendship, motherhood, identity, and the invisible emotional labor women carry – especially after becoming moms. From postpartum isolation and “playdate friendships” to soul-level connections and modeling healthy relationships for our children, this episode explores why not every friend can meet every need – and why that realization can be incredibly freeing. Friendships exist for reasons, seasons, and lifetimes. Together, Evelyn and Rebecca unpack how women can release guilt, comparison, and unrealistic expectations – and instead build intentional, values-aligned friendships that support who we are now. This episode is for any woman who has ever thought: “Why do friendships feel harder now?” “Is something wrong with me?” “Will I ever find my people again?” ✨ Spoiler: You will.
