On this milestone 100th original episode of the Decide Your Legacy Podcast, we are going to talk about the three main reasons that I struggle with change: pursuing comfort, giving in to fear, and holding onto a flawed identity. We’ll cover my personal experience and perspective, touching on my journey as a therapist and content creator. Today I’m going to challenge you to recognize and confront your fears, to shift your mindset, and to redefine any flawed identities. The ultimate aim of these changes lies in improved mental health and personal growth. This episode includes tools such as an exercise called 'Be Truth Oriented' that can help you shift your mindset towards a more positive identity.
