Listen "Season 2, Episode 3 - “You Are Not Who You Think You Are — You Are Who You’ve Practiced Being”"
Episode Synopsis
Most people believe identity is fixed, that you’re simply “confident” or “not confident,” “good with money” or “bad with money.” But here’s the truth: identity is not hardwired, it’s practiced.
In this episode of Overflow, Shana Kad unpacks how your subconscious shapes your identity by choosing the familiar, even when familiar keeps you small. You’ll discover why avoidance feels like relief in the moment but trains your brain to fear growth, and how every repeated thought, role, and behavior quietly becomes “who you are.”
This week’s practice: a simple but powerful self-audit to expose the habits you’ve been rehearsing and choose a new practice that rewrites your identity.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, on repeat, or defined by old labels, this episode will show you the liberating truth: you’re not broken, you’re not fixed, you’re simply practiced. And practice can change.
