Most people don't actually want the life they say they want… they want the idea of it.
In this short, direct episode, I'm breaking down why you keep saying you want more—more money, a better body, a peaceful life, a successful business—and still don't follow through in a way that actually creates it.
This isn't about motivation.
It's not about discipline.
And it's definitely not about needing a better plan.
It's about identity.
If your current identity doesn't match the life you're trying to build, you will keep defaulting back to what feels familiar… even when you know better.
Inside this episode, we talk about:
- Why wanting the outcome isn't enough
- The real reason you keep starting and stopping
- The gap between who you are and who your life requires you to be
- Why "inconsistency" is actually identity mismatch
- The hard truth about becoming the version of you who follows through
This is the shift most people avoid… and the exact reason nothing sticks.
If you're ready to stop thinking about the version of you who has the life you want—and actually become her—this will hit.

| 0:00.0 | Hi, my loves. Welcome to the Purpose Show podcast. We are going to get straight into this little |
| 0:08.0 | mini episode, a little pep talk. I'm fired up. I'm feeling it. I'm in flow. So literally |
| 0:14.3 | diving straight in. Most people don't actually want the life they say they want. |
| 0:23.2 | They want the idea of it, but they don't want the reality of being the person who has it. |
| 0:31.4 | That's why you keep saying that you want more and then doing nothing that actually creates it. |
| 0:40.8 | When you really truly want something, you get it. |
| 0:41.6 | You make it happen. |
| 0:44.6 | So let's go over some examples. |
| 0:50.5 | You want the body, but not the lifestyle that comes with it to maintain it. |
| 1:00.0 | You want the business, but you're not showing up consistently, like in what you need to do to grow the business, to have the successful business. You want peace, but you keep choosing chaos. |
| 1:08.3 | Subconsciously, but it is happening. You want more money, but you avoid looking at it, |
| 1:12.8 | managing it and holding it. So with all of these examples and anything like them, you don't have |
| 1:19.7 | a motivation problem. You have a mismatch between what you say you want and who you are being. |
| 1:26.0 | Wanting something is actually really easy. |
| 1:28.6 | Wanting something is easy. |
| 1:29.9 | But being the person who has it requires different standards, different decisions, |
| 1:35.4 | different daily choices, different behaviors on normal, boring days consistently over time. |
| 1:42.9 | So you like the outcome, but you don't actually like what it |
| 1:47.0 | requires of you yet. It's not wired in as something that's just part of who you are and what |
| 1:53.2 | you do. You're not necessarily inconsistent. You're more incongruent. Like you're not aligned |
| 2:00.1 | with the version of you |
| 2:01.3 | you need to be to have the outcome you desire. Your current identity, okay, who you are |
