They explore how surrounding yourself with emotionally available, encouraging, and honest individuals can transform your well-being and effectiveness. Through vulnerable personal stories—including Michelle’s decision to shift her father to a different “circle” in her life—they introduce the concept of “relational nutrition” and how it helps us evaluate who’s supporting us and who may be draining us.The conversation extends into workplace dynamics, offering insights for managers and leaders on how these same principles can enhance employee engagement, build trust, and foster emotionally intelligent leadership.
