#1802 - The Identity Problem…

Have you ever wondered if you need to be something before you can become it? Today, Kevin and Alan talk about the challenges of identity and achievement. They explore the critical differences between identifying as something versus doing the actions required to become that thing. Whether you're someone who needs to achieve before identifying as an achiever or someone who naturally embodies a role before stepping into it, this episode offers valuable insights into how these approaches impact personal growth and public perception.Links mentioned:Subscribe & follow  NLU: https://www.buzzsprout.com/742955/shareAlan’s Coaching: [email protected]______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it’s a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.
