We become reflections of those we spend the most time with, whether we realize it or not. Science tells us that emotions are contagious—negativity can spread just as quickly as joy. When we stay tethered to toxic energy, it doesn’t just drain us; it chips away at our spirit and dulls our light.

But here’s the truth nobody tells you: you don’t owe anyone your peace. The people around you should lift you higher, fuel your growth, and inspire your best self—not leave you feeling smaller or stuck.

Take a moment today to ask yourself: Who in my life truly elevates me? And who am I holding on to that’s keeping me from flourishing? Sometimes, the strongest act of love is letting go. 🧘‍♂️⚡
