In this episode, I’m diving into the part of change that completely transformed my own life but that most women never stop to consider-identity.
For so long, I thought my struggles came down to motivation, discipline, willpower, or having the “perfect plan,” but none of that ever stuck because the identity underneath it hadn’t shifted yet.
December has a way of exposing who we think we are, the woman who always falls off, the woman who puts everyone else first, the woman who waits for January to start again but those identities were formed long before we even realised it.
I talk about how identity is shaped, especially for teachers who live inside systems designed to make them feel like they’re always falling short. I share why micro-promises matter, how self-trust is rebuilt through tiny pieces of evidence, and why you don’t need perfection to become someone who shows up for herself.
This episode is the foundation for the entire December series. Before we talk about goals or habits or routines, you need to understand who you’re becoming because identity drives everything that follows.
