239. Why You Keep Snapping Back to Your Old Identity

Do you ever feel like you're making progress only to blink and find yourself back where you started? Snapping back to your old identity is frustrating as hell, especially when you're doing the work! I've had this exact conversation with my clients countless times. They ask, "Beck, we've looked at this belief, we worked through it, so why do I keep snapping back to my old identity?" In today's episode, I'm going to tell you exactly why!

Your identity isn't just a label – it's a frequency your subconscious recognises and protects. Think of it like a radio station your brain keeps tuning back to, even when you try to change the dial. I'll show you why your subconscious creates a set point and then snaps you back like a rubber band when you stretch too far.

 

But don't worry! I'm sharing micro-actions that will rewire your nervous system without triggering that safety alarm. These aren't big, showy moves – they're tiny daily practices that compound into massive shifts. Ready to step into your next-level identity without bouncing back? Let's go there!
