When friends take different paths after leaving shared religious beliefs

My best friend and I both left the evangelical church we grew up in, but she's found her way to progressive Christianity while I've become agnostic, and lately our conversations feel strained because she thinks I'm still healing and I think she's still making the same mistake of needing external validation for meaning. We've supported each other through so much but this feels like it might be the thing that creates distance we can't bridge.
