The Power of Community

Who you surround yourself with shapes your mindset, your courage, and your future. In this solo episode, we’re diving into the power of community—family, friendships, accountability groups, and spiritual circles—and how they can either lift you up or hold you back.

You’ll hear:

  • Why community is so influential in shaping your mindset and habits
  • The different types of communities and how each impacts your life
  • Honest truths about toxic relationships and draining circles
  • A simple “Community Audit” exercise to evaluate your circle
  • Practical ways to find uplifting, supportive people who help you grow

This episode is about making intentional choices in who gets access to your energy—and creating a circle that helps you rise.
