75. Who Are You Choosing to Be Today? The Question That Ends Survival Mode

I caught myself mid pity party a couple of weeks ago. Jules bolted upright at 2am, convinced he'd missed the alarm for hisearly flight, and we both tossed and turned until his actual 4am wake-up went off. I barely got back to sleep before mine went at 6, and I was lying there building a whole story about how my day was already ruined. Then I asked myself the question I now start every client with: who am I choosing to be today.This is a micro-dose episode on the power of intention, and choosing who you're being every single day. For years theself-development world has kept us in the knowing and the doing. Both are cognitive, both are mindset work, and you can stay in that loop forever. The step I've reoriented to, for myself and my clients, is the being. Getting out of the mind and embodying the change.I share my own real-time catch after a broken night's sleep, why overfunctioning gets dressed up as wellness and whena routine becomes a crutch, and what choosing who you're being has looked like for the people I coach, from staying regulated in big client meetings to writing a to-being list for a milestone birthday. I also get into the expectations gap most high performers are carrying, and why real change is incremental, not a quantum leap.“Who am I choosing to be today?” Fiona WalshJoin the waitlist: Becoming LimitlessBecoming Limitless is my new three-monthgroup program, running October to December.
