#82 You’re Already Becoming Someone — Are You Leading It or Drifting?

You’re already becoming someone. The only question is—are you choosing who? This episode helps you spot the drift, own your story, and start leading your life with identity-level clarity.

If you're a high performer, founder, or leader, it's easy to assume you’re in charge of your life. But today’s episode asks a deeper question:
 Are you actually leading who you're becoming — or are you just drifting into someone you never meant to be?

This isn't about productivity or even purpose.
 It's about identity.
 Because every small decision, every autopilot habit, every unspoken story is shaping who you are becoming.

And if you don’t name what’s quietly leading your life, you’ll wake up one day living someone else’s version of you — instead of the one you were meant for.

Inside this episode:

• Why drifting doesn’t feel like danger — but often is
• How unchecked habits and unresolved stories direct your identity
• What Tom Bilyeu’s pivot from tech exec to transformational founder teaches us about leading on purpose
• The key insight from Dan Allender on how early stories shape your becoming
• Julie’s personal story of recalibrating from image to integration

🔥 Mic Drops:

• “Drifting isn’t rest. It’s direction without intention.”
• “You don’t drift into alignment. You lead into it.”
• “Unexamined stories don’t disappear — they direct.”

🧭 TODAY’S MICRO-RECALIBRATION
 Ask yourself:
 “Am I leading who I’m becoming — or am I drifting into someone I don’t recognize?”
 Then finish this:
 “I am becoming the person who __________ — on purpose.”

Leadership Cue:
If you lead a team, household, or organization, ask:
“Where have we started drifting — and what would it look like to lead again?”

You don’t need to fix everything.
 You just need to catch the drift — and choose again.
