Episode notes
From Rock Bottom To Recovery And Coaching
- Charlie Smith escaped an abusive home at 19 with only student loans and debt and rebuilt his life from rock bottom.
- He later became a successful retail developer, battled addiction, and now celebrates 17 years sober while coaching others.
Follow The Five K's Framework
- Use the Five K's: know who you are, know where you're going, know how you'll go, know who you become, know who you go with.
- Build clarity, accountability, and support to sustain change when it gets hard.
Identity Acts Like A Thermostat
- You will never outperform your self-image because identity acts like an internal thermostat that sets expectations.
- Short-term overachievement fails when your subconscious re-aligns you to your limiting identity.
