Schultze and Jorge unpack how self-help culture often turns into identity avoidance: constant "evolution" with no roots, habits without values, and productivity theater over real work. They dig into choosing values first, respecting who you are now, shedding identities that no longer fit, and building urgency without worshipping busy.
