Sabrina Carpenter praised by Danielle Fishel for advice and mindset after 'Girl Meets World'

Danielle Fishel has spoken about her ongoing friendship with Sabrina Carpenter, describing the singer and actress as a trusted source of advice years after their time on Girl Meets World.

Fishel, 44, said Carpenter remains her “go-to” person when seeking guidance, despite the age difference between them. “Sabrina gives me great advice,” Fishel said.

“For being significantly younger than me, she is one of my go-to people to ask for advice because she's got great instincts. She knows how to trust them, and I admire that so much because I'm a person who's talked myself out of my instincts over the years.”

She added that Carpenter often encourages her to trust her own judgement. “So, whenever I really need to be reminded that I probably know the answer to the question, I go to her. She's like, ‘I think you probably already know this.’ She's a real special one.”

Fishel also recalled a moment when she disagreed with Carpenter over a track on the 2022 album Emails I Can’t Send. She said Carpenter “politely told me I was wrong” about the song’s relatability.

Reflecting on a 2024 performance, Fishel said hearing thousands of fans sing along changed her perspective. “This past November, as I heard 20,000 fans in the Crypto.com Arena sing every word to that exact song right along with her, I knew she was right. She's always right,” she said.

The pair have remained close since Girl Meets World concluded in 2017. Carpenter was a bridesmaid at Fishel’s 2018 wedding and supported her during her appearance on Dancing with the Stars in 2025.
