You’re Not Stuck, You’re Misaligned
This one's a compilation. Ben pulled four past conversations (Liz Hartke, Jerome Wade, Shannon Waller, Jason Henkel) that all land on the same idea: you're not stuck because you need a better plan, you're stuck because who you are and how you're living have drifted apart. Each prompt below comes from one of them.
▶ Watch the full episode with Jerome Wade, Jason Henkel, Shannon Waller, Liz Hartke for deeper context on how to approach these questionsWhat Your Week Actually Says
Liz Hartke audits the gap between what you say matters and how you really spend your days. If someone tracked your week, what would they say you value most?
The Quiet Belief Underneath
Jerome Wade says the thing holding people back is usually a quiet 'I'm not enough, I don't have what it takes.' Where in your life is that belief running the show?
Create It, Don't Just Explain It
Jerome says life isn't about understanding yourself, it's about creating yourself. Stop explaining why you drifted. What's the first thing you'd build on purpose?
How Well You Know You
Shannon Waller trusts people to the degree they know themselves, because if you don't know yourself, you can't predict what you'll do. How well do you actually know yourself right now, and where's the blind spot?
The Atmosphere You'll Bring
Jason Henkel says you carry an atmosphere into every room (calm or hurried, present or distracted) and you get to choose it. Name one room you'll walk into this week and the atmosphere you'll bring on purpose.
