The people you surround yourself with shape your mindset, habits, and growth. In this episode, we’re diving deep into the power of tribe—the people who challenge you, push you, and make you better. We’ll share personal stories, lessons learned, and the importance of both adding the right people and subtracting the wrong ones. If you’ve ever questioned who’s in your tribe—or if you even have one—this conversation is for you. Let’s go.
Here are five key takeaways from this episode of Grit Meets Growth:
- Your Tribe Shapes Your Growth – The people you surround yourself with impact your mindset, habits, and success. Choose those who challenge, support, and push you to be better.
- Addition and Subtraction Matter – Building your tribe isn’t just about adding the right people—it’s also about removing those who hold you back. Sometimes, subtraction is the key to real growth.
- Diversity Strengthens Your Circle – Your tribe shouldn’t be an echo chamber. Surround yourself with people who think differently, offer new perspectives, and challenge your assumptions.
- Accountability is Everything – Real tribe members hold you to your word, push you past your excuses, and help you see blind spots. Give the right people permission to challenge you.
- Be the Kind of Tribe Member You Want – Tribe isn’t just about receiving; it’s about giving. Show up for your people, pour into them, and be the kind of person who helps others grow.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
