Everybody talks about loyalty.Nobody talks about growth.In this solo episode, I freestyle my way through a realization I’ve been avoiding for a while. The people you’re closest to might not be the people helping you move forward. And that doesn’t make them bad people. It just means your life has shifted.I break down why trying to get everything from one group will burn you out, how over-pouring into others can stall your own progress, and why it’s okay to build different cliques for different parts of your life.This isn’t about cutting people off. It’s about getting honest about what you need.Because loyalty without growth eventually turns into resentment.And it’s about damn time we talked about that.In this episode, I get into:Why being the “captain” of your clique can quietly hold you backThe difference between pouring into people and being pulled upWhy you don’t need one clique. You need the right onesHow your environment impacts your motivation, discipline, and goalsThe mistake I keep making with the relationships that actually push me forwardWhy balance beats grind culture and comfort every timeIt’s About DAMN Time SegmentIt’s about damn time you stop expecting one group of people to meet every need in your life.The D.A.M.N.
