In this video, I break down what identity really is, not just a label, but a deep internal story built from your beliefs, your habits, and your self-talk. Your identity is your self-image. It’s the story you keep telling yourself about who you are. And the thing is: you will always act in alignment with who you believe you are. So if you keep identifying as someone who "can't change," or "needs alcohol to have fun," like I once did, then you’ll keep reinforcing that reality. But identity isn’t fixed. It’s shaped. And you can shift your identity starting today. In this episode, expect to learn: ✅ What is identity and how it forms ✅ How neuroscience proves that small identity-based actions rewire your brain ✅ The role of belief systems and how they shape your actions ✅ How to identify and challenge self-limiting beliefs ✅ Why self-talk and your environment are keys to sustaining change ✅ And how my personal story of stopping alcohol came down to a mindset shift Whether you’re trying to stop drinking, become more disciplined, or feel stuck in your personal growth journey, it’s not just about willpower. It’s about becoming someone new, one thought, one belief, one action at a time. When you shift your identity, you shift your entire life.
