In this Q&A, we go deeper into the concept of Identity vs. Discipline.

We tackle the specific, messy roadblocks that popped up after Monday’s episode—specifically the fear that identity work is just "delusional" and the exhaustion of the evening binge.

Questions Answered:

  • The Evening Crash: Why you have zero discipline after 5:00 PM (and why it’s not your fault).
  • Imposter Syndrome: Is "acting" like a healthy person just lying to yourself?
  • Identity Grief: What happens when your whole personality is tied to being the "funny fat friend"?
  • When It "Fails": I asked the identity question and still ate the cookie. Now what?
  • Starting Small: How to shift identity when you have 100+ lbs to lose.
