We dive into four game-changing identity paradigm shifts that can totally transform the way you see yourself—and your role in the world as a humanitarian or development aid worker. We’re pulling from psychology, neuroscience, and coaching wisdom to shake up the usual ways you might think about who you are… and offer fresh, practical ways to reimagine it all. 

Think of this as a self-concept makeover, with a purpose. 

Here’s a sneak peek of what we cover: 

• Why it’s less about finding yourself and way more about creating yourself—on purpose, with future-you in mind (not just past-you).

• Why who you want to be matters way more than what you want to have.

• How to catch your fear-based self running the show—and how to let your braver, bolder self take the mic.

• Why squeezing yourself into neat, limiting little identity boxes doesn’t work.

You’ll walk away with tools, real stories, and a fresh perspective that’s equal parts empowering and compassionate. This is your invitation to own who you are and who you’re becoming—one small (but mighty) decision at a time.
 
So grab your identity map from the last episode, and get ready to unlock new possibilities in your work, your relationships, and your growth.

In this episode of Rewired for Good, we’re diving into the sneaky ways our self-concept shapes our lives—without us even realizing it! You know those little phrases you casually drop, like “I’m terrible at relationships,” or “I’m just not a confident person”? Yeah, those might be running the show.

We’ll break down:
 ✅ Why your self-beliefs aren’t always based on facts (spoiler: your brain is a little dramatic sometimes).
 ✅ How tweaking the way you see yourself can literally change your reality.
 ✅ A simple yet powerful exercise to uncover your hidden self-concept—and start shaping it on purpose.

Oh, and we’re doing it all with a bit of humor, a few real-life stories, and an invitation to stop letting outdated labels decide your future.

So, grab your favorite drink, open a notes app (or, let’s be real, scribble on the back of an old receipt), and let’s rewire how you see you.

In times of crisis, when everything crumbles, what keeps us standing tall ? In this episode, we explore the role that your self-concept plays in your capacity to be strong, decisive and move forward. 

Join me on a five-part journey to rethink and redefine your self-concept, starting with this episode which explores the power of identity clarity.
