Ever feel like you’re supposed to have it all figured out—but deep down, you’re still searching for solid ground? What if the answer isn’t becoming someone new, but rediscovering who you’ve always been?

In this powerful episode of the Strong Within Affirmation Podcast, host Chris invites you on a journey that turns the idea of “starting over” on its head. Forget the shame, the fear of being exposed, or the pressure to keep up appearances. Through engaging storytelling (including a fresh look at Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations) and honest, vulnerable reflections, Chris explores the magic that happens when we let go of who we think we should be—and come home to who we really are.

You’ll discover why “being common” isn’t a flaw, but a foundational strength, and how to unearth the truths waiting beneath the surface of everyday life. Along the way, Chris shares personal stories, timeless wisdom, and bite-sized coaching moments that’ll leave you asking: What if the most courageous act is simply becoming yourself?

Ready to shift your foundation and step into the next version of you—rooted, real, and unapologetically authentic? Press play and find out how to focus on becoming before arriving. The transformation starts from within.
