How Your Identity Shapes Your New Year’s Resolutions

Have you ever found yourself setting the same New Year’s resolutions year after year, only to fall back into old habits? It’s not just about willpower—your identity plays a pivotal role in your success. In this first episode of 2025, we’re diving into how self-identity impacts your decision-making and resolve, and how even small shifts can create big changes. Inspired by James Clear’s Atomic Habits, we’ll explore practical steps to align your goals with the person you truly want to become.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why identifying as “someone trying” to achieve a goal can hinder your progress.
  • The power of shifting your self-identity to match your goals.
  • How to get honest about where you are today and why it’s crucial for growth.
  • Simple, actionable ways to align your behaviors with your desired identity.
  • Strategies for overcoming resistance when your brain craves comfort over change.

Challenge for the Week:
Take time to reflect on your current identity versus the identity you wish to adopt. Journal your answers to these questions:

  1. Who do I want to become?
  2. How does that person show up in their daily life?
  3. What actions can I take this week to align myself with this identity?
