“Anything that stretches you and makes you grow is never easy.” “In general, to gain trust, the three things that work are humility, curiosity, and authenticity.” “In Japan, you have to move from busy to productive, and from productive to impactful.” “As a leader, you must trust others to be your voice, your interpreter, and your proofreader.” “First and foremost, put your hand up—there's too much hesitation and self-censoring.” Dr. Laura Bonamici is the Global Head of Marketing at Fujitsu, based in Tokyo, Japan. Her career has spanned multiple industries and geographies, from consumer goods and luxury fashion to technology, each stage demanding adaptability and reinvention. Previously she was a Communications Specialist, Embedded PR; Commodity Operations Program Manager, Goldman Sachs; Investment Banking Division, Goldman Sachs; Corporate Marketing Assistant, Drake International-Learning Technologies.  She has a Ph.D. from Royal Holloway University of London; and B.A from Universita degli Studi di Firenze. She has built her reputation on her ability to lead transformation across cultures, guiding teams through periods of uncertainty and change. In Japan, she has been tasked directly by Fujitsu's CEO with spearheading marketing transformation, a mandate that challenges her to balance global speed with the local consensus-driven style of decision-making. Fluent in several languages and deeply committed to cultural immersion, Laura has become known for blending precision with creativity, humility with authority, and long-term commitment with immediate impact. She champions diversity, particularly encouraging women to take leadership roles and pursue international assignments, believing that exposure to different cultures is essential for confidence and perspective. Today, she continues to refine her leadership approach in Japan's uniquely complex business environment, guided by authenticity, curiosity, and respect for cultural nuance. Leadership, for Dr. Laura Bonamici, is a process of constant growth, challenge, and adaptation. As Global Head of Marketing at Fujitsu, she has learned that leadership in Japan is unlike anywhere else in the world: demanding patience, cultural sensitivity, and an unwavering commitment to authenticity. Upon her arrival in Tokyo, she was tasked by the CEO with driving transformation. Yet, she quickly discovered that while international markets often prize speed and disruption, Japan's consensus-driven decision-making process values nemawashi (informal groundwork), ringi-sho (formal approval circulation), and a deliberate pace. Rather than imposing a foreign model, Laura chose to respect the cultural norms while still pushing for meaningful change. This balancing act has required resilience and an appreciation that transformation cannot be rushed. Trust lies at the heart of her leadership. As a non-Japanese executive, she is acutely aware of perceptions that foreigners may not stay long. To counter this, she invests time in one-on-one interactions, symbolic gestures like delivering speeches in Japanese, and consistent demonstrations of long-term commitment. These actions, while small, become essential trust-building measures that gradually shift perceptions. Laura's leadership style is built on humility, curiosity, and authenticity. She believes in asking questions, even in a culture where questioning may be uncomfortable, framing them in ways that show genuine interest rather than criticism. She uses tools such as workshops, Post-it brainstorming, and agile methodologies to encourage open participation and psychological safety. For her, leadership is not about imposing a style but about weaving together the best aspects of Japanese precision, international innovation, and Fujitsu's own corporate culture. She also emphasises the need to move from being “busy” to truly “impactful.” By deliberately carving out time in her calendar for reflection and creativity, she models the behaviours she wants her team to adopt. This philosophy resonates strongly in Japan, where overwork is common but does not always translate to high impact. For women, she acknowledges both the barriers and the opportunities in Japan. She urges female leaders to “put their hand up” rather than self-censor, and advocates for international assignments to build resilience and global perspective. With Fujitsu's goal of 30% female leadership, she sees systemic change as gradual but achievable through consistent encouragement and role modelling. Ultimately, Laura likens leadership to salt: essential when used wisely, overwhelming when misapplied. Her approach, grounded in authenticity and cultural respect, is a reminder that leadership is both an art and a discipline, particularly in the nuanced environment of Japan. What makes leadership in Japan unique? Leadership in Japan is shaped by consensus-driven decision-making and cultural expectations of humility and harmony. Unlike markets that prioritise speed, Japan values nemawashi and ringi-sho, where alignment is painstakingly built. For Laura, leadership here requires balancing international urgency with local patience. Why do global executives struggle? Executives often arrive expecting to implement rapid change, only to find progress feels slow. They underestimate the importance of trust and long-term commitment. As Laura highlights, without demonstrating persistence and cultural respect, leaders may be dismissed as transient. Is Japan truly risk-averse? Rather than being risk-averse, Laura believes Japan exhibits high uncertainty avoidance. Transformation is not rejected but must be managed through careful consensus-building. She frames this as a shift from rushing decisions to ensuring impact, which aligns with decision intelligence principles. What leadership style actually works? Authenticity, humility, and curiosity are key. Asking questions, even when uncomfortable, models openness and encourages dialogue. Laura avoids imposing a singular “foreign” leadership style, instead blending the strengths of Japanese precision, international innovation, and Fujitsu's own values. How can technology help? Laura leverages agile methodologies, workshops, and digital collaboration tools to break down silos and create psychological safety. She believes technology, such as digital twins and agile design frameworks, enables experimentation without fear, helping bridge the gap between speed and consensus. Does language proficiency matter? Yes, both symbolically and practically. Delivering speeches in Japanese signals respect and commitment. It also reduces the reliance on interpreters, though Laura emphasises trusting interpreters and proofreaders as extensions of leadership. What's the ultimate leadership lesson? Leadership, like salt, must be applied with balance. Too much control overwhelms; too little leaves teams directionless. Laura's ultimate lesson is that leadership is about fostering trust, modelling authenticity, and creating the conditions for impact rather than imposing authority. [00:00] Dr. Laura Bonamici introduces her leadership philosophy, stressing that anything that stretches and challenges you is never easy. She frames leadership as a balance of authenticity and cultural adaptation. [05:20] Discusses her arrival in Japan and mandate from Fujitsu's CEO to drive transformation. She quickly identifies the challenge of aligning international speed with Japan's consensus culture, rooted in nemawashi and ringi-sho. [12:45] Highlights the importance of trust-building as a foreign leader. Shares strategies such as one-on-one meetings, learning Japanese, and consistent presence to counter perceptions of transience. [18:30] Outlines her leadership pillars of humility, curiosity, and authenticity. Explains how asking questions, though culturally uncomfortable, demonstrates genuine interest and encourages dialogue. [25:10] Describes practical tools like workshops, Post-it brainstorming, and agile practices to foster innovation and psychological safety within teams. [32:00] Emphasises the shift from being busy to impactful. She blocks time for reflection and creativity, modelling productive behaviours in contrast to Japan's culture of overwork. [39:15] Addresses the challenges and opportunities for women leaders in Japan. Urges women to put their hand up, avoid self-censoring, and take overseas assignments to build resilience. [45:00] Concludes with her metaphor of leadership as salt — essential in balance, destructive in excess — encapsulating her philosophy of authenticity, cultural sensitivity, and patience.

Join Jim and Greg for the Thursday 3 Martini Lunch as they cheer upward revisions in the economy, scold the Democrat running for governor in Virginia  for encouraging supporters to let their rage fuel them, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent cutting through the identity politics clutter of the Kamala Harris-Pete Buttigieg controversy.First, they cheer the news that the U.S. economy expanded at an annual rate of 3.8 percent in the second quarter of 2025, an upward revision from the earlier 3.3 percent estimate. Surging consumer spending drove the gains. Can we keep it going?Next, they hammer Virginia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Abigail Spanberger for urging her supporters to “let your rage fuel you.” While Spanberger claims it was a call for political engagement, the rhetoric comes off as tone deaf in the wake of recent violence. They also update listeners on the latest developments from Wednesday's shootings at the ICE detention facility in Dallas.Finally, they laugh as Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent cuts through the noise surrounding Harris's decision not to pick Pete Buttigieg as her running mate. While Democrats and the media obsess over identity politics, Bessent argues that both Harris and Buttigieg failed miserably in their past roles and would have been disastrous as president and vice president.Please visit our great sponsors:Formulated for men, Caldera Lab upgrades your skincare routine.

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ FOR THIS WEEK'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING PODCAST WHICH DROPS SEPTEMBER 19 @https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingToday's podcast explores that fact that this month's waning third-quarter of the lunar cycle—which leads us to the September 21 Virgo New Moon solar eclipse--has been a time to wake up & smell the coffee that our constitutional rights here in the U.S. are under threat.So, before we even reach this second eclipse in this fall's series--which began with the Pisces Full Moon total lunar eclipse on March 7--we're asked at the end of the monthly lunar cycle to adjust to several realities. Doing so allows us to better recognize what seeds we're being called to plant at the Virgo New Moon solar eclipse on September 21.Since the assassination of prominent right-winger Charlie Kirk on September 10, we experienced the September 13 Sun/Mercury superior conjunction in Virgo. And since then, Mercury has moved ahead of the Sun to become an evening star, meaning he's more prominently visible in the night sky.In turn, this B symbolizes it's now time—between September 13 & November 9 when Mercury once again stations retrograde—for clear observation & rational, logical, organized, & pragmatic thought that leads to ultimately to action.I often point out that my astrological philosophy is that the universe is benign & that it has no interest in making any of us suffer. Rather, it simply provides opportunities every moment of everyday for us to grow in consciousness. And if we don't recognize these moments, the universe doesn't give up!With that in mind, we're tasked right now with recognizing the pain of injustices that curtail the rights of both individuals & groups. And to begin to recognize we must push back against such injustices, or we'll continue to be subjected to additional onslaughts against our rights, such as the right free speech.We've witnessed an outpouring of grief on many different levels since the Pisces New Moon total lunar eclipse & during this monthly lunar cycle's last week. But the main one was the silencing via murder of an outspoken conservative who used religion as a shield to justify his prejudices against those he did not like. The aftermath of his murder brought grief, pain, & suffering to both those who followed him AND those who KNOW that killing someone because of his speech is morally WRONG.And not only wrong, it's unconstitutional, at least here in America. As Kirk's death began to sink in amongst the masses of both his followers & his critics, the powers that be began to curtail the speech of his detractors which has resulted in the stifling of voices such as late-night comedic talk show host Jimmy Kimmel.So what began with an outpouring of pain & grief has culminated in a discussion of how our current political polarization has wounded us—as evidenced by September 16's Mercury quincunx wounded healer Chiron, Venus's trine to Chiron, & Mars' opposition to Chiron.By September 17, however, the pushback against allowing anyone other than conservatives to speak freely began as Mercury in Virgo opposed Saturn retrograde in Pisces on September 17. Mercury then entered Libra & opposed Neptune retrograde in Aries, & trined Pluto in Aquarius September 18. In addition, Venus in Libra quincunxed Saturn in Pisces & the Virgo Sun quincunxed Chiron in Aries then too.GRIEF OVER THE ASSASSINATION OF FREE SPEECHQuincunxes are 150-degree aspects between planets, which makes them so far apart that they do not recognize or “see” each other. Most astrologers agree they are indications that an adjustment must be made. Like needing to turn your head to see what's out of your immediate range of peripheral vision, a quincunx alerts us it's time to look both ways before proceeding.In this case, as these quincunxes begin to register, they are waxing us toward this next solar eclipse. Mercury also trines Uranus & Pluto, Venus enters Virgo & quincunxes both Neptune & Saturn, squares Uranus, & quincunxes Pluto. In addition, the Virgo Sun opposes Saturn in Pisces, & ALL of these aspects occur between September 18 & September 21 in the lead up to the upcoming solar eclipse. Instead of parsing each of these individually, let's simply analyze what's occurred in the collective as we reach the end of this month's lunar cycle, shall we? What we have in fact seen--& are in fact experiencing now--is a rude awakening to the extremes that divergent political stances can bring. Even to the point where ignoring—or worse yet, excusing--gun violence by rationalizing it as a necessary by-product of such polarization because conservatives believe it's an expression of our rights as American under the Second Amendment.So, as we approach the 29'05” Virgo New Moon solar eclipse at 12:54 p.m. PT & 3:54 p.m. ET on September 21, it might then be a good time to engage in meditation, prayer, or mindfulness about what Mercury, the Sun, & the Moon's oppositions to Saturn & Neptune at this eclipse are asking us to do.Again, the collective is mirroring the answer back to us right now, and that is to resist pressure against our constitutional rights, most importantly the right to speak out. On September 15, as we waxed toward Mercury's quincunx & Mars' opposition to Chiron September 16 & Mercury's opposition to Saturn September 17 Pam Bondi, the Attorney General of the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) said the following in an interview posted on Youtube:“There's free speech, and then there's hate speech,” she announced while declaring that federal law enforcement will “go after” Americans for hate speech.The problem? There is, in fact, no hate-speech exception to the First Amendment. The First Amendment in the U.S. Constitution says the following: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”The fact is that the First Amendment was set up by America's founders to restrain the government, not individuals. In other words, the Supreme Court has parsed out in many cases what is acceptable under the First Amendment & what is not when it comes to both the government & individuals. Speech inciting “immediate violence” is prohibited under this amendment, but political speech is protected. For more on this--& remember, it pays to know the facts--see: https://constitutioncenter.org/the-constitution/amendments/amendment-i/interpretations/266In any case, it's now time to adjust our thinking as per all of these quincunxes & to push back against these oppositional threats to our constitutional rights—including that of free speech as it exists under U.S. constitutional law. By the time Mercury entered more negotiable & comprisable Libra on September 18, Bondi was forced to “walk back” her words about “going after” Americans for constitutionally protected “hate speech.” TIME TO FIGHT BACKThe other important transits happening around this solar eclipse is that Mars, which moves into Scorpio just before the Sun enters Libra at the fall equinox on Septembers 22, is waxing toward its third quarter “crisis in consciousness” waning square to Pluto in Aquarius on September 24. This podcast explores the history of this Mars/Pluto cycle from its  beginning in February 2024 until now, so tune in for more!But basically, in the common parlance of a born & bred New Yorker, the response to Pam Bondi's threats against free speech--& as a trained lawyer & the Attorney General for the state of Florida before being appointed head of the DoJ Bondi CLEARLY knows better—“dem's fightin' words!”All of these oppositions & quincunxes point now to this solar eclipse's culmination. That's because, according to astrologer Ronnie Dreyer, it's energies technically began when the transiting true nodal axis reached the 29'05” Virgo South Node position circa January 22/23 only days after the inauguration of President Donald Trump.In total, the question now is can we plant seeds that lead to the further clear sighted analyzation of what's occurred since January of this year that's blocked us from being protected by established constitutional law? And, can we muster up the energy necessary now to fight back before it gets even worse?U.S. history tells us we can. But it's going to involve leaving behind any confusion about what's going on now, calling a spade a spade, & formulating a pragmatic, logical plan to uphold our rights as Americans. In short, we've done it before & we can do it again, but we must wake up to reality & understand we can't give up without a fight.Tune in to all of this & more Astro News You Can Use, starting today @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingSee you then!

Holding Our Nerve Explanation of the gap between deciding to act and actually taking action when dehoarding Definition in Hoarding Context Persistence in sticking to healthy, productive decisions Managing urges to revert to hoarding behaviours Commitment to goals for sustainable progress Reference to Amelia Earhart's quote about decision-making and tenacity “Paper tigers” explanation – things we fear that seem big but aren't as powerful as they appear Application to Hoarding Behaviour Resisting Acquiring Items Examples: bargain shopping, free items, online shopping temptations Enduring Discomfort in Dehoarding Tolerating emotional and physical discomfort during the dehoarding process Maintaining Long-term Commitment Remembering reasons for setting goals in the first place Avoiding short-term gratification and honouring original decisions Hoarding as a Coping Mechanism Exploration of how and why hoarding behaviours develop and persist Acknowledging that they once served a purpose and understanding possible current motivations Strategies for Holding Our Nerve Breaking the Cycle Recognising urges and patterns Learning from successes and setbacks Decision-Making vs. Tenacity Differentiating between difficulty in deciding versus following through The importance of honouring previous decisions Reminders and Motivation Recalling the “why” behind goals (better living conditions, consequences, self-improvement) Using motivational tools (e.g., visual reminders, Pinterest boards) Compassion and Flexibility Allowing for Mistakes Emphasis on not seeking perfection, just consistent progress Adjusting Expectations Recognising that personal best varies from day to day Trusting the process, even during discomfort Building the “Dehoarding Muscle” Each successful decision builds strength and determination for future efforts Identifying and Addressing Triggers Internal Triggers Decision fatigue, emotional attachment, mental and physical exhaustion, anxiety or depression Self-doubt and “what if I need it?” thoughts External Triggers Specific shops, websites, sales, or social pressure from others Discouragement, overwhelm, enticing offers, or resistance from people uncomfortable with change Planning Around Triggers Identifying personal stumbling blocks and creating plans to avoid or counteract them Coping Tactics for Urges Acknowledgment & Self-Reflection Naming feelings and urges to reduce their power Recognising patterns and underlying needs (e.g., hunger, mood) Nervous System Regulation Using grounding techniques, calming objects, self-talk, and other anxiety-management tools Allowing oneself to feel discomfort without acting on it Dealing with “What If I Need It?” Thoughts Trusting future self to be resourceful Breaking down hypothetical worries and seeking alternatives Importance of Support Systems Building and Using Support Networks Therapists, friends, accountability groups (Zoom sessions), online communities Support as both emotional (crying, laughing) and practical (advice, checks on decisions) Loneliness and Variations in Support Recognition that not everyone has support, with encouragement to proactively seek help Mention of a related episode on loneliness Self-Compassion and Learning from Setbacks Self-forgiveness and Reflection Importance of forgiving oneself instead of engaging in self-punishment Analysing situations where nerve was lost to prevent future recurrences Practical Planning Strategies for managing triggers, such as only shopping with someone else or removing items quickly Links Podcast ep 196: Trusting our future selves to be resourceful with Dr Jan Eppingstall Podcast episode 174: How to feel grounded when we're overwhelmed or dysregulated using ventral vagal spaces and touchstones, with Dr Jan Eppingstall Podcast ep 49: Sitting with discomfort: distress tolerance and hoarding – How unconscious distress avoidance might be worsening your problems Podcast ep 190: What if we forgive ourselves, but now we know better, we do better?

Beijing is calling on Washington to deepen cooperation on maintaining peace and stability, while also warning against U.S. interference in China's core interests (01:07). Influential Donald Trump supporter Charlie Kirk is dead following a shooting at a speaking event in Utah (09:32). China has built the world's largest disease prevention and medical care systems, with the average life expectancy reaching 79 years, 1.1 years higher than in 2020 (19:56).

President Donald Trump urged EU officials on Tuesday to hit China with tariffs of up to 100 percent as part of a strategy to pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin, a source familiar with the matter told The Epoch Times.Stephen Miran, a top White House economic adviser, cleared a Senate hurdle on Wednesday that moves him closer to becoming a Federal Reserve governor. Members of the Senate Banking Committee voted 13–11 in a party-line vote to send Miran's nomination to the full Senate for consideration.Poland shot down Russian drones in its airspace on Wednesday with the backing of military aircraft from its NATO allies. It's the first time a member of the Western military alliance is known to have fired shots during Russia's war in Ukraine. Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk called the drone incursion a large-scale provocation. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Wednesday condemned Russia's violation of Polish airspace.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports Israel has urged a full evacuation of Gaza City, ahead of its planned expanded military operation.

Chinese President Xi Jinping says China and Portugal have set a positive example of mutual respect and win-win cooperation between countries with different social systems and national conditions.

Israel's military has urged all residents of Gaza City to evacuate to what it calls a humanitarian zone in the south, as it expands its military operation in the territory. For a second day running it's struck and destroyed a high-rise block in the territory's largest urban area. Israel says the tower was being used by Hamas. The militants deny this. Also, totalitarianism in the age of Donald Trump, we hear more about the impact his policies are having on science.

JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ FOR THIS WEEK'S "ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING" PODCAST WHICH DROPS SEPTEMBER 5 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingAs we head toward this week's Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse on September 7, we know we'll be seeing not only the emergence of the themes of this month's set of eclipses, but also the stark reality of how they are manifesting at this point in time. The themes of all eclipse series generally manifest within the collective before their arrival. And this month's eclipses—including tomorrow's September 7 Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse which occurs at 15-degrees & 23-minutes of this empathic sign of collective energies at 11:09 a.m. PT & 2:09 p.m. ET—clearly illustrate this.It's been at least since February 21 when Attorney General Pam Bondi promised to release the Epstein “list.” Subsequent actions & reactions have taken place since, but the interest in bringing justice for the perpetrators of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse of hundreds—if not thousands—of young girls & women—has been prominent in the news since.This month's set of eclipses—both the September 7 Pisces Full Moon lunar eclipse & the Virgo New Moon solar eclipse on September 21—carry the same themes. Eclipses generally belong to a set of two (sometimes three) which occur twice annually & are defined as a part of the longer-term Saros Series. Each series has its own interpretation.“This Saros Series appears to be concerned with the bringing to the surfaces of long-term worries about loved ones, health, or issues to do with paperwork or communication,” according to astrologer Bernadette Brady who's analyzed the meanings of Saros series eclipses in her book “Predictive Astrology, The Eagle And The Lark.”“This could manifest as a worrying piece of news about a loved one or responsibilities with paperwork coming home to roost. Any news will have a sense of destiny or fatedness about it,” she concludes.As those of us who pay attention know, “release the Epstein files!” has been a cry heard throughout the collective for months. However, it's as the themes of this eclipse series began to manifest that these cries have grown louder, to the point where survivors of Epstein & Maxwell's abuse whose health has suffered from it, have now decided to make themselves known the world.The survivors of Jeffrey Epstein & his convicted accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell took to the steps of the U.S. Capitol on September 3--only days before the September 7 lunar eclipse--it was to implore Congress to pass the "Epstein Files Transparency Act." Doing so would “force the release of all unclassified records related to the disgraced financier held by President Donald Trump's administration,” according to Reuters. "This is about ending secrecy wherever abuse of power takes root," said Anouska De Georgiou, a former model and actress who was one of about ten self-described Epstein victims who spoke about her experience at a press conference outside the U.S. Capitol." Newsweek ran this story after reporting on what was said during this Epstein survivors' press conference on September 3, starting with this headline: “'We know the names'…Victims threaten to compile own list of abusers” The article continues: “ Jeffrey Epstein survivor Lisa Phillips said that she and fellow victims planned to compile their own list of abusers from within the disgraced financier's friends and associates, after the Trump administration denied the existence of an Epstein "client list." "We know the names. Many of us were abused by them," she said at Wednesday's Capitol Hill rally.”As Brady noted in her book about this series of eclipses: "Paperwork coming home to roost," anyone???Be sure to join us for all this Astro News You Can Use--& more about this series of eclipses—such as the years during which they occurred in the past, which might jog your memory as to whether they factored importantly into your life then! (I know they did mine!) In addition, we discuss the repercussions of Saturn's recent retrograde back into Pisces, the Mars in Libra square to Jupiter in Cancer, Uranus's station retrograde at 1-degree Gemini, & the events they've already triggered. As well as events related to the upcoming September 5/6 station of Uranus retrograde combined with its closeness to the September 7 lunar eclipse.These include the 6 magnitude earthquake in Afghanistan, which has caused 2,200 deaths to date, the defiance of international law by the Trump Administration when it “blew up” the Venezuelan boat it “suspected” of carrying drug cartel Tren de Aragua gang members & killing 11 aboard in international waters in defiance of internationally excepted maritime law (Saturn Rx in Pisces; Neptune still in Aries, anyone?)And then there's the number of legal cases ending Trump's unlawful use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport immigrants without due process by declaring the U.S. has been invaded & it “at war” & the judicial smackdown of his claim that he can unilaterally impose tariffs on any country he chooses without Congressional approval. And the judicially directed "unfreezing" of the $2.2 Billion the Trump Administration had withheld in funding from Harvard University.And…so…much…more!Tune in to “Karmic Evolution's Astrological Speaking” podcast, which drops today, September 5 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingor on any of your favorite podcast stations for deeper astrological analysis of all this!

When it comes to creating the life or business you want, the biggest barrier is often the story you keep telling yourself about who you are. Identity urges are the habitual patterns your brain offers up that reinforce the version of yourself you've always believed to be true. These urges can feel as permanent as your DNA, keeping you stuck in old habits and sabotaging even the best-laid plans.   In this episode, I share how shifting your perspective from seeing these habits as fixed traits to seeing them as urges completely changed how I approach personal transformation. From breaking free of the “I'm always tired” story to moving past a victim mentality and the “I'm a hot mess” identity, I walk through how to notice the urge, sit with it, and choose differently. By learning to observe and respond differently to your urges, you can build a version of yourself capable of achieving far more than you imagined.   If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.
