Summary

In today’s episode, I break down the power of relationships and how the people around us shape our success, energy, and perspective. Every team in life—family, business, faith, or finance—requires the right alignment to move forward without resistance. I share how to recognize those who support growth versus those who interfere, whether they are obvious detractors or well-meaning loved ones operating from fear. By understanding relativity, association, and the balance of giving and receiving in relationships, it becomes easier to build a network that fuels success. Identifying and removing limiting influences is key to creating an environment that fosters purpose, fulfillment, and progress.

to be or better.

1:09.5

And we want to identify

1:11.8

the individuals that are interfering with where we want to be or better because they're interfering

1:17.7

with the meaning of our past by elevating a snapshot, a judgment, a condition of the past, or limiting
