Description

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” 

🔥 Audit your inner circle often — not everyone deserves access.
 

In this episode of Dad Bod Sculptors, Dane Palarino unpacks one of the most underrated secrets to transformation: your environment. He dives into why the people you spend time with can either pull you back into your old habits or push you toward your best self. Growth isn’t meant to be comfortable, but it’s definitely not meant to be lonely. Learn how to find your tribe, elevate your circle, and build the kind of support system that fuels your goals — not distracts you from them.

Whether you’re stuck in a rut or ready to level up, this episode will help you audit your circle, create accountability, and surround yourself with people who actually want to see you win.

💥 Key Takeaways

• Growth thrives in community, not isolation.
• Audit your inner circle often — not everyone deserves access.
• Surround yourself with people who raise your standards.
• Accountability accelerates progress.
• Conversations shape your identity — choose wisely.
