Have you ever thought about the people who surround you? The ones who sit at your table metaphorically, influencing your life, energy, and outlook? Recently, I came across a thought-provoking question that resonated deeply with me: “Who sits at your table?” This question has prompted me to reflect on the incredible impact the people in my life have had on me. In this blog, I’ll share my thoughts on the powerhouses that have shaped my journey and discuss the importance of choosing the right individuals to surround yourself with.

The Table of Influencers:
Today I like to focus on The powerful women in my life, my source of inspiration, motivation, and strength. Their presence makes me feel safe, confident, and capable of anything. Their support is unwavering, and I know they have my back no matter what.

A Diverse and Powerful Cohort:
The people seated at my table are a diverse group, each bringing unique qualities and experiences. Some have been with me for decades, while others I’ve met more recently. They come from different backgrounds and professions, ranging from teachers and bankers to dreamers and creators. Despite their differences, they all share one common trait – they are fiercely protective of me and share incredible values that are hard to find in today’s world.

Reciprocity of Support:
What makes this group of individuals so special is the mutual support we offer each other. Just as they are there for me, I am there for them. The relationships are built on trust, love, and encouragement. Knowing that they stand by my side gives me the confidence to face life’s challenges head-on.

Choosing Your Table Wisely:
I invite you to ponder the question: “Who sits at your table?” The people you surround yourself with significantly impact your life. Negative and toxic influences can drain your energy and make you feel unworthy. On the other hand, positive, empowering individuals can lift you up and make you feel like you can conquer the world.

Embracing Empowering Connections:
If you find that your current circle doesn’t uplift you, it’s time to reevaluate. Surround yourself with people who value and celebrate you for who you are. You don’t have to compete or prove yourself to deserve a place at your own table. Seek out connections that add value to your life and make you feel cherished and supported.

to close this piece of writing, remember: The people who sit at your table are more than just acquaintances; they shape your journey and contribute to the person you become. Cherish the powerful connections that uplift you and provide strength in times of need. If needed, don’t hesitate to make changes to your circle, because you deserve to feel celebrated, free, and empowered.

Choose wisely, and you’ll find yourself capable of achieving anything life throws your way.
