Raising our Standards through Friendship

<p>This week, we were *surprise surprise* inspired by an amazing quote (with a fun backstory!) that left us thinking about how our friendships shape us into the people we are. We discuss how our friendships help us set new standards for ourselves and explore how the truly elite friendships allow us to grow into our best selves. We cover a lot this week: Letting go of friendships with a lot of history, acknowledging that two truths can exist at the same time, and how we want to make the most of our friendships (and life!).</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>Quote from today's episode:</strong></p> <p>“The people who we surround ourselves with either raise or lower our standards. They either help us become the best version of ourselves or encourage us to become lesser versions of ourselves. We become like our friends. No man becomes great on his own. No woman becomes great on her own. The people around them help to make them great. We all need people in our lives who raise our standards, remind us of our essential purpose, and challenge us to become the best versions of ourselves.” - Matthew Kelly</p> <p><strong>Question of the week:</strong> How do we manage friendships to maximize our growth?</p> <p>Get involved! We'd love to hear from you.</p> <p>Instagram: @willyousitwithme</p> <p>TikTok: @willyousitwithmepod</p> <p>Gmail: willyousitwithme@gmail.com</p>
