Your Circle Determines Your Future (Even If It’s Family)

Your circle can make you or break you — and the hardest part is when the people holding you back are the ones closest to you.

In this episode of The Underdawgs, we talk about the uncomfortable truth:
Should you distance yourself from friends… or even family… on the way to success?

We break down the difference between:
• cutting people off because of ego
vs
• protecting your peace and your future

We also talk about:
✅ why most people don’t support you until you “make it”
✅ how negative environments kill momentum
✅ loyalty vs growth — where to draw the line
✅ how to set boundaries without becoming a “bad person”
✅ why leveling up often feels lonely

If you’re trying to build a better life, a business, or a new version of yourself — this one will hit.

Welcome to The Underdawgs - a journey of real people, just like you.
We're three men with the courage to document our climb toward success while we're still in it — not after we "make it." This channel is about the struggle, the lessons, the challenges, and the breakthrough moments that shape us.
We're here to show you that you can build the life you desire, no matter where you're starting.
That you can take control, evolve, and become someone you, your family, and God will be proud of.
This is our fearless climb up "the mountain Everest" - the daily grind of discipline, growth, and self-mastery. And we're bringing you with us.
