Episode 02: Why Things Start Working…And Then Wobble
This episode is for you if:
You’ve experienced growth and results… and then found yourself wobbling
You’ve felt like you “sabotaged” momentum and assumed you needed to fix something
You’re in the messy middle - where expansion has begun, but staying there feels unfamiliar
You want relief from the constant reset cycle
In this episode, we explore:
Why the wobble usually happens after things start working
Why pressure doesn’t create problems - it exposes identity gaps
The difference between capability and stability
Why strategy can guide action, but can’t stabilise identity
The hidden cost of repeatedly “starting over”
What identity lag actually is - and why it’s not a personal flaw
This conversation is about the liminal space.
The quiet, often misunderstood phase where growth is happening - but your internal sense of self hasn’t fully caught up yet.
It’s about recognising that this moment isn’t sabotage. It’s transition.
And learning how to stay long enough for identity to stabilise - instead of misreading discomfort as failure.
You don’t need to do anything with this episode. Just notice what stays with you after listening.
That’s usually the part that matters.
