Building Our Tribe & Knowing When To Let Go

Our tribe determines so many facets in our lives. Whether it’s our personal, professional, or romantic relationships, who we spend our time with is a huge influence towards how we present ourselves. It’s important that we remember to create relationships with those who are lifting us up, rather than bringing us down - and for many of us, making those decisions can be really challenging.

A key value in this process is honesty, not only with the people around us but with ourselves as well. For our own happiness to shine through, it’s our responsibility to act authentically and have the strength to communicate when things get tough. Becoming comfortable with confrontation and honest conversation is not an easy feat, but it’s something we must learn in order to become the best versions of ourselves we can be. 

In this episode, I discuss how I have learned to shift my circle of friends to best reflect who I am, why it’s so important to actively think about who we surround ourselves with, as well as some personal recollections on how the people in my life reacted when I chose to distance myself.
