72. Your Future Self Starts Here: How to Build the Bridge Between Intention and Action


Listen Later

You don’t need more motivation — you need a framework that connects your intentions to your actions.

In this episode, Jess introduces The BRIDGE Framework, the evidence-based process she uses with coaching clients to help them close the gap between who they are now and who they want to become. Part mindset, part structure, all sturdiness — this is the episode you’ll come back to any time you feel stuck or need a reset.

We’ll cover:

  • The six pillars of the BRIDGE Framework and how to apply them in real life
  • Why clarity and self-efficacy matter more than motivation
  • How to use the minimum effective dose to create consistent progress
  • What it means to collect “proof” instead of chasing perfection
  • How to evolve your goals with curiosity instead of self-criticism
