Can you name the silos in your life? You know, sometimes we have a friend group and a work group and a family-time group. You might have a bucket of friends that only makes sense when you’re all together, because you went to grad school together.
With so many different parts in our lives and interests, it’s quite easy for these silos to emerge. I notice it from a coaching perspective when I see folks at the gym integrating beautifully with their classmates, but struggle immensely outside of the gym because their core friend group isn’t values aligned to gym life, for example.
It might be time to take inventory.
When you scan the different buckets of social circles in your life, I want to ask a simple question. Are these different groups aligned with who you really are and what you really care about?
If not, you can understand (at least hypothetically) how detrimental this might be to your development. Remember, the best way to grow a rose bush requires pruning.
