Who do you surround yourself with and how does this factor into your success?

Part of being successful is having fun and having an enjoyable, happy life. So, I have lots of friends that keep me happy and keep me emotionally grounded in who I am. We have a lot of fun together. We also have meaningful conversations on difficult topics such as race, immigration, and wealth disparities in the African American community. It’s important that you have a group that you trust and can have purposeful discussions with.
