We live in a world that glorifies being “busy” and “doing it all,” but at what cost? This episode is your wake-up call if you’ve been carrying the weight of unrealistic expectations and silently wondering why you’re always exhausted.

I’m breaking down the truth about self-imposed pressure, the kind you create when you keep pushing, keep performing, and keep holding yourself to impossible standards… even when no one’s asking you to. We’ll dig into how these patterns form, why your nervous system is screaming at you to slow down, and how to actually let go without feeling like you’re giving up.

It’s about making choices that are yours, not ones rooted in guilt, image, or the need to prove yourself. Because life doesn’t need more pressure, it needs more presence.

Why you keep making choices that look good but don’t feel right, and how to stop.

This episode is all about ego-led decisions, the kind you make to feel worthy, validated, or accepted… even when they don’t feel true.

I share the real reason I became a paramedic (hint: it wasn’t purpose), how that pattern followed me into business, and the moment I realised I was building a life that looked good on paper, but didn’t fit me anymore.

We talk:

• Why chasing image over alignment leads to burnout + self-doubt
• How to know if you’re still performing a past version of yourself
• What changes when you stop seeking approval and start backing your truth

If you’ve ever built your identity around what makes people proud, but you’re craving something real, this one’s going to land.

In this episode of Unshakable You, I’m joined by world record holder, author, and coach John Templeton.
From breaking physical records to breaking generational patterns, John shares what it really takes to rebuild your identity when everything you once clung to, titles, success, image, falls away.

We talk ego deaths, masculine conditioning, emotional empowerment, and the kind of inner work that doesn’t just look good online, it actually lands in your body.

This one’s for the high achievers, the perfectionists, the ones silently unravelling under the weight of who they think they should be. It’s for anyone who’s ever asked, “Who even am I now?” and is ready to find out.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVER:

• Gaining a world record and the identity behind the achievement
• Rebuilding yourself without recreating another ego-driven identity
• The beliefs men are handed about success, strength, and self-worth and how John unlearned them
• Mastery in life vs mastery of self (and why they’re not the same thing)
• What it means to feel powerful when no one’s watching
• The truth about starting over when everything crumbles
