How to Not Let Setbacks Keep You From Reaching Your 2026 Goals

The number one reason people don't reach their goals isn't because they're not good enough - it's because they stop trying when obstacles show up. Roman breaks down the two types of obstacles everyone faces (external challenges outside your control and internal self-induced setbacks), and reveals three crucial mindset shifts to overcome anything standing in your way. This episode gets real about why perfectionism kills pursuit, how shame attacks your identity while grace gives you freedom to fail, and why you need to stop focusing on the mountain and just take the next step.

If you want to reach your goals in 2026, fuck being perfect - fall in love with the pursuit.

In This Episode:

• Why the number one reason people fail isn't ability, it's stopping when obstacles appear

• The two types of obstacles: external (outside your control) and internal (self-induced)

• Three ways to consistently overcome obstacles in 2026
• Why perfectionism kills pursuit and keeps you stuck

• Replace shame with grace: shame attacks identity, grace separates who you are from what you did
• Why shame keeps you stuck and grace gives you freedom to pursue
