We like to think we're independent thinkers, making conscious choices and forming our own ideas. But what if you're more influenced than you realise? What if your beliefs, attitudes, and even your identity are being shaped - subtly and consistently - by the people you spend the most time with? Or at the very least, the people you pay attention to? There's that old saying: "You become the average of the five people you hang around with the most." It's not scientifically precise, but it's not bullsh*t either. In this episode, we explore how the company we keep shapes our thoughts, filters our reality, and maybe even rewires our brain. We talk influence, identity, thought cults, and the fine line between your truth and someone else's programming.
