Earlier this year, I recorded an episode about the 7 Deadly Sins of Money Mindset. One of those deadly sins is listening to cynics, naysayers, and frenemies who put you down and trash-talk any idea you have on bettering your life or business. I received some emails and DMs about that topic and in this episode, I will expound on the question: what even is a frenemy? How would I know if I have one?

✔️ Pay attention to how you feel after you've had an interaction with someone. If you felt sunny and happy before, but they sucked all the joy out of you, that's not a good sign.
✔️ Social media, catfishing, and digital "friendships" have made it difficult to know just how authentic someone new in your life actually is, especially if you haven't been able to ever connect with them in person.
✔️ Frenemies don't give it to you straight. They make passive-aggressive comments and snide little remarks, and they gossip about you behind your back.
✔️ If your friend always seems to speak unkindly of other friends and family members and enjoys sh*t-talking them in front of you, here's your sign. You can safely assume they do that when you are not around.
✔️ True friends who are down for you will be supportive and kind. They will comfort you when you are sad and they will applaud your victories. You won't have to wonder where you stand with them-- you'll know.
