Get Obsessed : With Living Your Best Life

Proximity Doesn’t Equal Loyalty: How to Find Your True Support System for Personal Growth


Listen Later

Welcome to Get Obsessed, your go-to personal development podcast where we break through barriers and help you create the life you desire! In this episode, Mika dives deep into an essential mindset shift: "Proximity Doesn’t Equal Loyalty." Discover why the people closest to you—family, lifelong friends, or coworkers—aren't always your biggest cheerleaders when it comes to your personal growth and transformation.


Key Takeaways:

  • Why Proximity Doesn’t Equal Support: Just because someone is part of your inner circle doesn’t mean they’ll cheer for your dreams or personal development.
  • Spotting Hidden Doubt: Learn to recognize when doubt is disguised as love or concern from your friends and family.
  • Common Patterns of Discouragement: Understand phrases and behaviors that subtly undermine your confidence, such as generalizing your identity ("You never follow through") or fixating on fears instead of possibilities.
  • Protecting Your Progress: Mika shares three actionable steps to keep your momentum strong—naming the behavior, asking clarifying questions, and making small, low-risk bets to prove your naysayers wrong.
  • How to Cultivate Real Loyalty: Build loyalty to your dreams and self, attract the right supporters, and set healthy boundaries with those who want to keep you playing small.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to detect subtle signals of sabotage—even from well-meaning loved ones
  • Simple self-coaching strategies to reframe negative feedback and stay motivated
  • How taking small actions builds unstoppable confidence and attracts the right people to your growth journey
