  • How Habits Shape Your Identity
    Feb 11 2026

    In this episode, Andrew and Cat explore why habits aren’t really about discipline, motivation, or willpower — they’re about identity.

    Instead of white-knuckling routines or beating yourself up when habits don’t stick, this conversation reframes habits as small, daily votes for the person you’re becoming. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep falling off routines you want to maintain, this episode offers a gentler, more sustainable way forward.

    Rather than asking “Why can’t I stick to habits?”, Andrew and Cat invite you to ask a different question:

    “Who am I becoming?”

    the-daily-habits-that-align-you…

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode
    1. Why habits fail when they’re rooted in pressure instead of identity
    2. How identity change naturally creates behavior change
    3. The difference between motivation and momentum
    4. Why “future you” should be a mentor — not a critic
    5. How small, imperfect habits compound into real transformation
    6. Why consistency matters more than intensity
    7. How to stop labeling yourself as “lazy” or “undisciplined”
    8. Why habits should feel honest, not impressive

    Key Concepts Discussed

    Habits Follow Identity

    You don’t become someone after you do the habits — you become someone by doing them.

    Motivation Comes After Action

    You don’t wait to feel motivated. You act first, and motivation follows.

    Small Habits Build Self-Trust

    Every tiny habit you keep is a vote for the future version of you.

    Future You Is Cheering — Not Judging

    Habits stick when your future self feels like a guide, not a taskmaster.

    Aha Moments & Quotes“You can’t change behavior without changing identity.”“Every habit is a vote for the person you’re becoming.”“Your future self isn’t built on your best days — it’s built on your normal ones.”“Do the habits that feel honest, not the ones that feel impressive.”“Small habits don’t look powerful — until they are.”Practical Takeaways
    1. Stop trying to overhaul your life all at once
    2. Choose habits you can repeat on your worst days
    3. Ask: Would future me appreciate this?
    4. Focus on being someone who moves, not someone who “exercises perfectly”
    5. Let habits be snack-sized and sustainable
    6. When you miss a day, simply begin again — no shame required

  • How To Decide Who You Are
    Feb 4 2026

    In this episode, Andrew and Catherine dive into one of the most common (and confusing) questions people face during personal growth: Who am I actually becoming?

    If you feel like something needs to change but you can’t quite name what, you’re not broken — you’re lacking clarity, not motivation. This conversation walks through how to identify the quiet clues your future self is already giving you, how to separate who you are from who you were taught to be, and how to decide who you are without pressure, panic, or blowing your life up.

    Key Topics Covered
    1. Why most people don’t change because of lack of clarity, not lack of motivation
    2. The difference between being “lost” and being ready for alignment
    3. How societal expectations shape identity without us realizing it
    4. Why clarity doesn’t come from big decisions — it comes from noticing
    5. Learning to listen to your internal voice instead of outside noise
    6. How your body signals alignment vs. resistance
    7. Why future clarity feels calm, not urgent or euphoric
    8. The danger of confusing clarity with certainty
    9. How opting out of societal scripts creates freedom
    10. What childhood interests reveal about your natural wiring
    11. Following energy instead of forcing ambition
    12. Why discomfort is one of the best sources of information
    13. How to explore identity without needing a full plan
    14. Why this process should feel exciting, not heavy

    Actionable Takeaways
    1. Ask yourself: Who taught me who I should be?
    2. Notice what repeatedly energizes you — that’s data.
    3. Pay attention to what drains you — that’s data too.
    4. Look for patterns, not lightning-bolt realizations.
    5. Revisit what you loved as a child without judgment.
    6. Separate identity from labels and job titles.
    7. Stop waiting for certainty — clarity comes through movement.
    8. Take one small step toward what feels aligned.
    9. Let calm be your compass, not urgency.
    10. Treat this process as exploration, not a test.

  • How To Reinvent Yourself (Without Blowing Everything Up)
    Jan 28 2026

    Hosts: Andrew Dewar & Catherine Collins

    Episode Overview

    Reinvention doesn’t have to mean blowing up your life, burning bridges, or starting from zero. In this episode, Andrew and Catherine talk about how real, sustainable change actually happens — slowly, intentionally, and with respect for the life you’ve already built.

    If you’ve ever felt called to become a new version of yourself but feared what it would cost your relationships, career, or sense of safety, this episode is for you. You’ll learn how to release old identities gently, navigate fear without letting it run the show, and grow in a way that feels stable instead of chaotic.

    Key Topics Covered
    1. Why reinvention feels so scary (and why that’s normal)
    2. The difference between dramatic change and sustainable growth
    3. How fear and safety keep us attached to old identities
    4. Why “burn it all down” reinvention is mostly a myth
    5. Honoring the version of you that got you here
    6. Separating identity from behavior
    7. How to evolve without erasing yourself
    8. Why small, incremental change is more powerful than radical overhauls
    9. Navigating relationship friction when you start changing
    10. Setting quiet boundaries without over-explaining yourself
    11. Allowing grief and excitement to coexist during growth
    12. How to know if your reinvention is actually aligned

    Actionable Takeaways
    1. Acknowledge your current identity — it helped you survive and get here.
    2. Start with 1% changes, not dramatic life explosions.
    3. Replace control with structure, not rigidity.
    4. Separate who you are from what you do — habits can change without self-rejection.
    5. Expect some discomfort, especially in relationships, and allow time for adjustment.
    6. Let your boundaries be quiet — not everything needs an announcement.
    7. Notice calm as a signal that you’re changing in the right direction.
    8. You’re allowed to grow gently, safely, and on your own timeline.

    Quotes from the Episode“Good is the enemy of great — and most people stay stuck because great feels unsafe.”“You can evolve without erasing yourself.”“Reinvention doesn’t have to be dramatic to be...
