229. When you're no longer who you used to be, but not yet who you're meant to be

8 Mar 2026 · 37 min

You know that season where you're not who you used to be, but you haven't fully stepped into who you're becoming yet? That in-between phase where you're doing everything right, working hard, and staying consistent, but something keeps blocking you from your next level? Yeah, that's exactly what this episode is about.

And I'm going to tell you something you probably haven't heard before about why you're stuck there and what's actually going to get you out. Because I promise you, it's not what you think.

We'll discuss:

• What the in-between phase actually is and why so many people get trapped here longer than they need to • The sneaky reason your results keep fluctuating no matter how much effort you put in • Something that happened to me that revealed exactly what was really standing in my way (and it caught me completely off guard) • Why everything you've been trying hasn't been working, and the one thing that changes all of it • A practical exercise you can do today to find what's actually blocking you

If this episode resonated with you & you noticed some resistance when doing the exercise at the end, here's the blueprint to remove those blocks and become the version of you required for your next level: https://secludedthoughts.com/identity
