  • Outgrowing your Circle
    Jan 26 2026

    Sometimes you outgrow people before you’re ready to admit it, and that realization hurts.

    In this episode of Growth Gems, host Chris Briggs unpacks what happens when your vision grows but your circle doesn’t. This honest conversation explores the awkwardness of growth, the guilt of outgrowing relationships, and the courage it takes to choose alignment over approval.

    You’ll learn how to stop shrinking your ideas, release people with love, and move forward even when support feels thin. If you’ve ever felt torn between loyalty and becoming, this episode will help you trust your growth journey and walk confidently into your next chapter.

    ✨ Growth doesn’t always look like addition sometimes it looks like release.
