When success starts feeling unfamiliar. In this episode, Kevin and Alan examine why identity crises often happen when growth starts to challenge the version of yourself you have been living from. Progress can expose the gap between who you thought you were and who your results now require you to become. This episode breaks down self-belief, imposter patterns, confidence, long-term consistency, and the pressure that comes with stepping into bigger opportunities. It also challenges the idea that discomfort always means you are failing. Sometimes it means your identity is being forced to catch up.If your life is changing faster than your self-image, this episode will help you make sense of the tension. Press play before your old identity tries to negotiate a comeback._______________________Book Alan’s Business Breakthrough Session. Your first 30-minute coaching call is FREE.
