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.
