Summary

Do you ever wonder why you know exactly what to do to change your life, yet still feel stuck repeating the same patterns?
 
 
On today's show, we explore a powerful concept in psychology called, The Identity Gap, which represents the space between who you consciously want to become and who you subconsciously believe you are.
 
 
I break down why lasting change does not come from willpower or information alone, but from upgrading your internal identity, which ultimately shapes your health, habits, relationships, and success.
 
 
Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3608 to learn how to align who you are with who you want to become and why focusing on just today's actions is the key to sustainable transformation.
 
 
Enjoy the show!

Welcome to the Cabral Concept, where board certified doctor of naturopathy, Dr. Stephen Cabral,

0:05.8

shares with you exactly how you can reverse aging, take back your health, and live a life

0:10.9

full of energy and passion with new 20-minute episodes every single day to keep you healthy and

0:16.7

engaged. Now, here's your host, Dr. Stephen Cabral.

0:21.9

One of the hardest things I needed to learn and really rewire my mind for was that you do not

0:28.3

get the life that you want. You get the life that matches your identity. What that means is that

0:35.9

inside of you, there is another person called the

0:39.5

subconscious mind. And that subconscious mind holds the identity of who you truly believe

0:46.9

yourself to be. Not an act that you put on or not words that you specifically speak,

0:52.3

but actually who you, when no one else is watching or listening,

0:56.6

believe yourself to be. So if there's any space right now, we call that the gap between where you are

learned in psychology, and it is one of the best ways to change behavior. And it starts with,

1:24.2

if I know what I want, and I know know my goals and I've known them for quite some

1:29.4

time, why have I not yet achieved them?

1:32.8

Because we know that most things in life can be achieved if you follow a specific blueprint,

1:39.6

a system, hire a coach, a doctor, a practitioner, someone that's already helped others or themselves

1:47.7

to achieve the goal and they can do the same for you. They may be written a book on it. They might

1:53.5

have a course on it. They have something. There's a for YouTube video, right? There's something

that you're able to follow that would also allow you to get to that
