335. The Company You Keep: 7 Reasons Community Matters So Much
 November 06, 2025
Â
My heart is still overflowing after spending the weekend with the incredible women in our Life Mentoring School coaching community. Over 120 of us gathered together for a weekend of teaching, dancing, laughter, prayer, and deep connection — and it reminded me once again why the company you keep matters so much.
In this episode, I’m sharing seven reasons community is one of the most powerful forces for transformation — and why the people you surround yourself with quietly shape everything about the life you create.
We’ll talk about:
💛 How real, lasting transformation happens in relationship — not isolation
đź’› Why belonging is a decision, not something you wait for
💛 How proximity determines what feels “normal” in your life
💛 What to do when you’ve outgrown certain circles
đź’› Why contribution beats comparison every time
đź’› How the right people make you braver
đź’› And why legacy is never a solo project
I’ll also share a few behind-the-scenes stories from our most recent coaching event — the joy, the tears, the breakthroughs — and an invitation for you if you’re craving this kind of community too.
Maybe you’ve been walking through a season that feels lonely… or maybe you’ve been the one holding space for everyone else, and you’re finally realizing you need some support too. Friend, you don’t have to do it alone.
The company you keep can change everything — for your growth, your joy, and your legacy. 🌿
P.S. If you’ve felt that nudge to become a coach or mentor, to turn your own transformation into impact — this is your sign. Certification for our February class is now open for a limited time. Come be part of this powerful community of women who are living, leading, and loving from their true selves.
