What if the reason your systems keep “failing”… isn’t because you lack discipline—but because they were never designed for you in the first place?

As entrepreneurs, we’re taught that better systems mean tighter schedules, stronger willpower, and squeezing more productivity out of already-full days. But what if the most powerful systems don’t ask you to do more—only to become more aligned with who you’re actually becoming?

In this week’s episode of Success Genius, we continue the Wanting Well series by rethinking systems from the inside out. We explore why one-size-fits-all frameworks quietly lead to resistance, burnout, and procrastination—and how misaligned systems can make your nervous system feel unsafe, even when your goals are “right.”

Inside this conversation, we unpack what it really means to build systems that honor your biology, your season of life, and your identity—not the version of you from last year, and not the version you feel pressured to perform as. You’ll learn why energy—not your planner—dictates productivity, how rhythm and rituals create sustainability, and why support should feel like relief, not pressure.

We’ll also talk about “enoughness,” how to stop over-functioning, and how to design structures that help you breathe, regulate, and move forward without forcing yourself into constant self-override.

Join me as we redefine systems—not as tools for control, but as containers for becoming. Because when your goals are supported by alignment instead of strain, success stops feeling heavy… and starts feeling possible again.

Topics covered in this episode include:

• Why most systems fail due to misalignment—not lack of discipline
• How ignoring your natural rhythms leads to burnout and resistance
• The question that changes everything: “Who do I want to be supported as?”
• How to build systems that feel like support, not pressure

Ready to design goals that actually fit your life?

Tune in to learn how to create systems that support who you’re becoming—so success feels sustainable, grounded, and aligned.

What if the goals I’ve been chasing aren’t wrong… they’re just not mine?

For a long time, I set goals based on what looked good from the outside—what performed well, what earned approval, what a “successful” life was supposed to look like. But I’ve learned that a life that looks good doesn’t always feel good. And the same is true for goals. Many of them are borrowed, shaped by comparison and pressure rather than by truth.

In this episode of Success Genius, I talk about a different way of setting goals—one that starts with identity instead of performance. I explore why so many goals leave us exhausted, why discipline can start to feel like punishment, and how alignment matters more than motivation. When goals come from who we’re becoming, they don’t drain us—they support us.

This episode is an invitation to stop hustling for a life that doesn’t fit and start building one that actually feels like you. Because goals aren’t just things to accomplish—they’re invitations to become. And when your goals are rooted in truth, growth stops feeling forced and starts feeling inevitable.

Topics covered in this episode include:

• Why most goals are borrowed desires—and how mimetic desire shapes what we think we want
• The difference between goals that look good and goals that actually feel right
• How identity, not discipline, should be the foundation of goal setting
• Practical ways to build supportive structures that align with who you’re becoming
• Why authentic goals come from nervous system safety, self-trust, and alignment

Ready to stop chasing goals that exhaust you and start building a life that feels like you? Tune in to learn how to create goals from the inside out—and design a future rooted in truth, not performance.
