Welcome back, Conscious Investor! Today, I dive deep into a topic that’s been on my heart lately: the balance between ambition and relationships. With hustle culture everywhere, we often hear, “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” While there’s truth to this, I want to challenge the extremes we sometimes take this idea to. Do we really need to cut people out of our lives to grow? What if long-standing friendships and supportive relationships are actually assets to our journey, even if they don’t directly align with our goals?

In this episode, I share personal stories and insights into how you can surround yourself with people who uplift you while maintaining meaningful connections with those who’ve been there through life’s ups and downs. From recognizing the importance of reciprocity in relationships to reframing what “adding value” really means, this conversation is an invitation to rethink how we approach the people in our lives. Plus, actionable takeaways to help you evaluate and nurture your relationships without falling into the trap of elitism or hustle culture. Let’s build a life—and a circle—that truly matters.
