In this episode, Kepo tackles one of the most frustrating cycles for high achievers: why your habits just won’t stick. You know what you should be doing. You’ve read all the books, made the plans, and set the goals. And yet, you keep breaking the promises you make to yourself.

In this raw and real solo episode, Kepo breaks down the truth behind habit failure, and it has nothing to do with willpower. From identity misalignment to self-sabotage and judgment, you’ll learn what’s actually stopping you from becoming the version of yourself you keep envisioning.

This one will hit home. Because the truth is, you’re not lazy. You’re just misaligned.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Habits don’t fail because of poor planning. They fail because your identity hasn’t caught up yet.
• Every time you break a promise to yourself, you erode your self-trust.
• To build sustainable habits, you have to first believe that you are the type of person who does that thing.
• Your identity is like a thermostat. Until you raise it, you’ll keep defaulting to old behaviors.
• Stop judging the people who are living the life you say you want. You can’t become what you secretly resent.
• Ask yourself: Do I really want this? Or am I trying to be someone I’m not?
• Either raise your standards, or let it go.
