Whose on your Council?

When I ask this question, I'm not talking about your organizations leadership or board. 

​This past week I read The Life Council by Laura Termaine in which the author describes the ten types of friends that can comprise your life in a way that bring abundance, wisdom, and discernment. She rightly states that you may not have all ten types of friends in your life at any given time and sometimes a friend can fit into several different seats on your life council. 
But the main thesis is that we all need people in our life who we can go to and share our hearts. Which leads me to the question above - who's on your council?
For me it it's about having people that I can call on in life who can help me make decisions. I have my family, who are a source of wisdom, challenge, and encouragement. Mentors. Dear friends. Colleagues. My spiritual director and supervisor. The people I am currently in school with. 
But those are just my people. Who are your people? And what gifts of discernment do they bring to your life?
