About this episode

Nicole Johnson discusses the impact of the women in your circle on your life and success.

Have you ever walked away from a conversation with a woman and felt like you could genuinely conquer the world — or the complete opposite, totally drained and second-guessing yourself? That is not a coincidence. That is proximity. In this episode of No One Asked But, Nicole gets honest about one of the most strategic (and underrated) moves a woman can make: choosing who she surrounds herself with. Your circle is shaping your mindset, your ambition, your confidence, and your ceiling — whether you realize it or not. In this episode, you'll hear: → The signs your current circle may be quietly holding you back → What it actually feels like when your circle is pulling you forward → Why proximity is a strategy, not just a nice-to-have → How to find your people (even if they are not in your zip code, industry, or age group) → Why you do not rise alone — and what that really means Nicole also shares her own experience of intentionally building a circle of high-achieving, supportive women — and how that shift changed everything. This episode will make you think hard about who you are spending your time with, and whether they are giving you a permission slip to play big or stay small…
