Becoming Your Best Self – Bridging the Identity Gap
Manage episode 485047591 series 2929236
Welcome to Season 9 of the Full Circle Podcast! This season is all about transformation - specifically, how to become the most authentic, aligned, and empowered version of yourself.
In this powerful opening episode, Gillian lays the foundation for deep personal growth by helping you explore one essential truth: You can’t become who you want to be without first understanding who you are today.
Through thought-provoking reflection, practical tools, and a story from her coaching practice, Gillian introduces the concept of the “identity gap” - the space between your current self and your future self - and how to bridge it with self-awareness and intentional action.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
🌀Why understanding who you are (beneath the labels) is the key to becoming who you want to be.
🌀The importance of defining your own version of success.
🌀How identity-based change leads to real, lasting transformation.
🌀The mindset shift from goal-chasing to identity embodiment.
🌀A coaching tool to help you take small, aligned steps daily.
🌀How to reframe setbacks as part of your evolution.
🌀Why the journey is about progress — not perfection.
Reflection Questions to Consider:
💭 Who am I at my core — beyond roles, titles, and expectations?
💭 Who do I want to become, and what does a day in their life look like?
💭 What one small action can I take today that aligns with that version of me?
