In this thought-provoking episode, DJ Neuman dives into one of the most overlooked factors in personal and professional success—your identity. It’s not just about skills, strategies, or even talent—it’s about aligning your self-image with your goals. DJ shares insights from legends like Myron Golden, Tony Robbins, and Warren Buffett to uncover why so many people work tirelessly but remain stuck. The core issue? They haven’t upgraded their inner identity to match the life they want.

From understanding the power of identity-based decisions to the concept of “be, do, have” rather than “have, do, be”, this episode challenges you to rethink how you see yourself and what you’re truly capable of achieving. If you’re ready to level up, it starts with who you are.

Episode Summary:

In this episode of Uncommon Edge, DJ Neuman dives deep into one of the most talked-about (and misunderstood) topics of our time: AI. But this isn’t just a tech talk—it’s a legacy conversation. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, skeptical, or just unsure how AI fits into your world, this episode is for you.

DJ unpacks how AI, like ChatGPT and other tools, is less about replacing us and more about amplifying what’s already in us. From helping a friend launch a business plan at a birthday party to breaking down how AI empowers creators, parents, and entrepreneurs alike—this is about leverage, not fear.
