Why Surrounding Yourself with Different People Changes EVERYTHING

Why Who You Surround Yourself With Will Make—or Break—Your Life In this mashup episode, I sit down with my brother Andy Frisella to unpack one of the most powerful truths about success: your environment dictates your elevation. Who you allow into your circle will determine how far you go, how big you dream, and how much you grow. If you’re serious about reaching the next level in your life, this conversation is going to hit home. Andy brings his raw, no-excuses approach to growth, and together we break down why surrounding yourself with the right people is the ultimate game-changer. From business to relationships to personal development, we dive into how your inner circle can either fuel your vision or drain it. Andy shares the hard lessons he’s learned about cutting ties with negativity, choosing mentors who stretch you, and building a tribe that forces you to elevate instead of settle. This episode isn’t just about “networking.” It’s about choosing proximity on purpose. It’s about realizing that average environments create average outcomes—and if you want an extraordinary life, you need extraordinary people around you. Andy and I reveal how to identify who belongs in your circle, who doesn’t, and the kind of habits and standards that keep your group sharp, hungry, and aligned with greatness. I want you to finish this episode with clarity and conviction about the company you keep. Because if you want to change your life, the fastest and most effective way is to change your circle. Who you surround yourself with will either multiply your growth—or keep you stuck.
