Sometimes growth doesn't add people to your life — it rearranges them.
In this episode of Latinaly, Kiah Burgos dives into one of the most uncomfortable truths about personal growth: as you evolve, your relationships will change.
When you start healing, setting boundaries, regulating your nervous system, and redefining your identity, not everyone will recognize the version of you that emerges.
That doesn't mean they're bad people. It may simply mean their role in your life has shifted.
In this conversation, Kiah explores the idea of “filing people accordingly” — accepting people exactly as they are while understanding that not everyone gets the same level of access to your life.
Some people are:
• memory keepers
• crisis companions
• celebration friends
• daily life people
• or lifetime souls
And some are simply meant for a season.
This episode unpacks how growth changes friendships, how to maintain peace in complicated relationships, and why having a small circle isn't a flaw — it's often clarity.
If you're navigating reinvention, evolving friendships, or learning how to protect your peace without cutting everyone off, this conversation will resonate deeply.
Growth doesn't always mean leaving people behind.
Sometimes it just means placing them where they belong in your life.
