What if the life you feel stuck in… isn’t actually your life?

In this episode of Try Life On, Maurice Philogene breaks down a powerful shift in perspective: you’re not trapped, you’re simply returning to a state that no longer serves you.

Drawing from decades of experience across law enforcement, military service, corporate leadership, entrepreneurship, and global living, Maurice explains how identity isn’t fixed—it’s formed by the states we repeatedly step into. And more importantly, how you can consciously change it.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, uncertain, or ready for something new but unsure how to move forward, this conversation will show you a simpler path: try something on, follow alignment, and allow your identity to evolve.

This episode is a reminder that you’re not locked into one version of yourself—you’re always one decision away from a new state, and a new life.

Key Takeaways

- You’re not stuck in your life, you’re stuck in a state you keep returning to 

- Identity is built by the states you repeatedly come back to, not the ones you briefly explore 

- You don’t need a master plan. You need the willingness to try something on

- Alignment shows up as a feeling - pay attention to it

- Some states last decades, others months, but none are permanent

- Growth comes from both stepping into and stepping out of identities
