Today we’re talking about The Slow Fade: that slow, quiet drifting apart where the messages get shorter, the replies slower, and the energy shifts until one day…it’s just silence.

In this episode, we’re unpacking:

• Why we quietly quit people instead of having real conversations
• What’s actually happening beneath the surface for both sides — the Fader and the Fadee
• Who deserves an explanation and who doesn’t
• What can we do instead of fading away

If you’ve ever been on either side of The Slow Fade, this conversation will help you see what’s really going on underneath, and how to move through it with more clarity, courage, and integrity.

Today's Hosts:

• Michael DiIorio
• Matt Landsiedel
• Reno Johnston
