You’re not stuck — you’re just wearing the wrong label.
This episode is about breaking out of the boxes you’ve put yourself in — and reclaiming the freedom to evolve.
For years, I wore the label: Kung Fu instructor.And I was proud of it I still am. It shaped me. It taught me discipline, presence, structure.
I actually still teach kung fu todayBut eventually the label Kung Fu instructor, became a cage.
Every time I felt a pull to speak more…To write…To step up as a guide in new ways…I’d feel this voice say: “That’s not who you are.”
Because my identity was tied to a single definition.And if I stepped outside of it, I felt like I was abandoning something — or faking something new.Labels are helpful… until they aren’t.
Luckily I never held on to that label, I expanded it and added to it.
They can give structure, but they’re not your full truth.
The moment a label limits you, it’s time to question it.
Saying “I’m just a ___” is how men stay small.“You’re not just anything — you’re unimaginable potential."
If you label yourself “shy,” you’ll never speak up.
If you label yourself “broken,” you’ll never heal.
If you label yourself “just a coach,” you won’t lead.
Labels become unconscious rules. Break them.
Write down every label you currently live by.(e.g. Coach, Father, Quiet Guy, Hustler, Fitness Guy)
Ask: Does this serve me — or limit me?
Choose ONE label to replace or retire this week.Example: Change “I’m not a confident person ” → “I’m learning to be more confident by challenging myself daily.”
“You don’t owe your past identity anything.The man you’re becoming needs space to emerge.So drop the label… and write a new one.”
