Your goals aren’t failing — your calendar is.
In this episode, E and Chris break down why most people start the year motivated… then quietly drift back into old patterns. The problem isn’t strategy, tools, or ambition — it’s misalignment between who you say you want to become and how you actually spend your time.
This conversation dives deep into identity, courage, time audits, consistency, and the hidden habits that either compound your growth or quietly sabotage it.
Inside this episode:
- Why your calendar tells the truth about your real priorities
- The “perfect week” exercise that exposes misalignment fast
- Why every new level requires letting go of your old identity
- How fear, comfort, and ego silently slow your progress
- The power of small, consistent actions over big intentions
- Why courage often means saying “no,” not “yes”
If you’ve ever felt busy but stuck — this episode will hit home.
