In the Season 2 opener, we’re starting with the truth most people never question:
what if the “you” you think you are… isn’t actually you?
In this episode, we break down how your identity is not fixed — it’s a dopamine-backed prediction loop your brain has been recycling for years. You’ll learn why you repeat the same habits, why “this is just who I am” is a lie, and how your brain builds identity based on familiarity, not fate.
We dig into:
🧠 Why your brain prioritizes prediction over truth
🧠 How dopamine locks in identity loops
🧠 Why the “self” is actually an illusion your brain constructs
🧠 How to interrupt old identity coding
🧠 And how to start rewriting the version of you your brain expects
If you’ve ever felt stuck, inconsistent, or trapped by the “old you,” this episode will make everything finally make sense.
Your identity isn’t permanent — it’s programmable.
Let’s rewrite the script.
