037. You’re Not Broken — You’re Just Living Someone Else’s Life: If you’ve ever wondered, “Is this really all there is?” — this is why you feel stuck (and how to fix it)

Are you living your own life—or someone else’s? In this episode, Dave Flenagan and Zoe Hirsch explore Dr. Stef Huber’s article on why so many people feel lost—not because they lack direction, but because they’ve spent years following expectations instead of their authentic selves. Dr. Huber explains how societal conditioning, especially between the ages of 15 and 40, can pull us away from who we truly are. She highlights a crucial turning point around 40—a moment where we either reclaim our authenticity or risk a lifetime of regret. To help navigate this, the article introduces a simple daily exercise: asking yourself whether you would choose to keep living your current life. Dave and Zoe discuss why self-reflection is so uncomfortable, how small shifts can lead to realignment, and what it takes to break free from external pressures. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation on identity, personal growth, and designing a life that truly feels like yours. 🎧 Listen now—and start choosing you.
