Pick It Up Podcast

What does it really mean to live identity first instead of letting roles, labels, or expectations define you?In this episode, we explore how identity shapes the choices we make, the habits we keep, and the stories we tell ourselves. We talk about separating who you are from what you do, why misaligned identities can keep you stuck, and how redefining yourself can unlock growth in fitness, work, relationships, and life.Whether you're navigating a transition, feeling disconnected from your goals, or simply questioning the version of yourself you've been operating from, this conversation will challenge you to look deeper and choose identity with intention.
