Were you ever anxious about personal development out of fear of outgrowing friendships/relationships/colleagues?

Good question. Not anxious, but concerned about the unknown and the feeling of loss. As I've been moving forward, I've actually found a great deal of freedom from worry. I've slowly cut out people, jobs, and anything that I've found to be negative or toxic. Once I moved past the stage of mourning over the loss, I realized it was the best decision for me. It's like a weight was lifted from my shoulders and makes me excited about what I'll find waiting for me around the corner.
My experience has been exactly the same as of late. It feels good to progress and look forward to new challenges and experiences. As I've aged, I've become less attached to my surroundings, material possessions and people and it is freeing, just as you mentioned.@SW-User
