And this time of year, everyone becomes a part-time philosopher talking about what you \"deserve.\"\nBut one day easily becomes two and three. Then it's Christmas. Fuck it. And suddenly it's 17 business days since you last went to the gym or ate a vegetable.\nIn this episode, I'm getting real about the stories we tell ourselves, especially during the festive period:\nWhy \"just one day\" is never just one day\nHow we abdicate power by treating ourselves like passengers in our own lives\nThe identity shifts I've made (coming out, becoming a dad, building GMC)\nWhy you have to be delusional before you actually believe your new story\nHow to enjoy the holidays without abandoning your future self\nThe question to ask yourself: \"Is this the story of my old identity or my new one?\"\nYou believe what you repeat. You become what you believe. That's all on you.\nYou don't need perfection over Christmas. You just need to be present, intentional, and honest. You need to back the story and identity of the person you actually want to be.\nYou don't need to wait till January to be proud of yourself. You can give yourself that feeling today.\nAlso in this episode: updates on GMC's growth, upcoming events, and some big changes coming in 2025 that I'm buzzing about.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/r_WUT-qaLB6-xYZX-LSYmEDoJM6Bo0CJD_Um0E-G5gA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8xYjJh/MTE5NTRjNjI5M2Jm/YjM1NzJmNWZiNzUz/NzJiOS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
