LiftingLindsay's More Than Fitness

Are You as Self-Aware as You Think?


Listen Later

In this episode, Alex and Lindsay discuss the surprising research showing that while 95% of people believe they are self-aware, only 10–15% actually are when tested. They explore how this lack of true self-awareness creates blind spots that keep people stuck in patterns they can’t see or break. The conversation digs into how faulty identity views and core beliefs quietly drive behavior, and why uncovering them is essential to progress. They reveal why working with a coach provides the outside perspective most people need to achieve lasting self-awareness, compassion, and accountability.
