#203 Do You Have Toxic Friendships? Take This Test To Find Out! 03/25/2026

#203 Do You Have Toxic Friendships? Take This Test To Find Out! Are your girlfriends top tier, or have you just gotten used to the bare minimum? Even worse...Are you worried you have some fake or toxic friendships in the mix? In this episode, Jayna is putting your connections to the test—with a playful (but telling 👀) Fab Friend Report Card that will have you side-eyeing your group chat in the best way. From hype levels and loyalty to jealousy (or lack thereof), reciprocity, and being a true safe space… we're breaking down what top tierfriendship actually looks like. You'll be scoring your circle in real time—1 to 3 for each category—plus a little bonus point for something Jayna describes as the highest top tier quality. But don't worry—this isn't about cancelling your friends. It's about getting honest about what you have, what you deserve, and what you might want to call in more of. Because the truth is… not everyone is meant to be top tier—and that doesn't make them bad. It just means they might not be your people in that way. So grab a pen, open your notes app, and let's find out… ✨ Are your besties the best… or is it time for a friendship upgrade? SCORING 💛 7–12 points: "Baseline Friends" These are your good, normal, everyday friends. They: like you enjoy your company show up when it's easy But they might not: go out of their way deeply invest or consistently show up at that next level "These are your 'we have a good time' friends… not necessarily your 'I'd trust you with my life' friends." 👉 Translation: Totally fine… just know what lane they belong in. 🙂 13–16 points: "Growing Into It" There's definitely something better than average here here. Your friends: have top tier moments show flashes of real depth sometimes rise to the occasion But it's not fully consistent yet. "They can be that friend… they're just not always that friend." 👉 Translation: Potential is there—but consistency is what makes it elite. 🔥 17–19 points: "Solid Circle" Okay this is a strong group. These friends: support you care about you show up in meaningful ways You likely feel: safe valued and seen most of the time "You've got real connection here… this isn't surface level." 👉 Translation: This is a circle you can build with. 💎 20–21 points: "Top Tier Energy" Now we're talking. These are the friends who: consistently show up genuinely celebrate you inspire you and make your life better just by being in it "You don't question them… you experience them." 👉 Translation: This is the kind of friendship people wish they had. 👑 22 points (with bonus): "Elite, Ride-or-Die" This is rare air. These friends: don't just support your life… they're part of building it protect your name show up behind the scenes and would absolutely help you move, cry, build, heal… all of it "These aren't just friends… these are your people." 👉 Translation: Keep them close. Be that friend back.
