About this episode

This episode explores the practice of identity shift and how to focus on becoming your future self through intentional actions and mindset changes.

Are you living out of your past or your imagination? In this episode, we dive into the "superpower" practice of identity shift: moving out of brain-default routines and into your most extraordinary life. We explore the psychology of "The Future Self"—not as a distant destination, but as a lens for your daily decisions. Learn how to interrupt past-focused habits, elevate your standards, and start "voting" for the person you are becoming. In this episode, we discuss: How to shift your brain’s focus from the past or problems to future-focused results. The "Greatest Expression" framework for navigating your current season. Why daily disciplines are the ultimate act of self-love. How to "Be Her Now" through small, intentional acts of self-creation. In the Create Your Future podcast with Mandy Mackowiak, Certified Life Coach, you will get tools and practical strategies for elevating your self-concept and mindset, achieving your goals, and creating the life and future of your dreams. Please expect to be uplifted, learn, and be inspired as she and her guests cover topics ranging from life coaching and habits to mindfulness and spirituality to goals and happiness.
