Description

Have you ever tried to power through with motivation or willpower, only to feel stuck again a few weeks later? You’re not alone. 

Motivation fades, willpower drains, but your Future Self identity can carry you forward for the long haul.

In this episode, I explain why identity is the missing piece when it comes to creating lasting change. Instead of forcing yourself to “just stay motivated,” you’ll learn how to step into the identity of your Future Self, so the actions you want to take become natural, not a constant struggle.


We’ll explore:

  • Why motivation and willpower eventually fail (and what to do instead)
  • How your identity shapes your behavior automatically
  • Real-life examples of Future Self identity shifts in action
  • My Future Self framework and the two models of thinking that guide you to align with who you want to become
  • The relief that comes from living as your Future Self now
