- Education
A show dedicated to warning you against the dangers of isolation, fear of failure & pursuing undesirable certainty & control, Reclaiming Your Identity is an extension of my quest to show you how to break through your subconscious mental blocks & to help you appreciate & own your own vulnerabilities. I’ll share my tips to help you to become larger than your anxieties, to gain clarity, to be courageous & to take action. As an authentically vulnerable person, I share both my own- & other people’s stories of resilience & triumph, & I’ll explain to you how to really get things done.
Working globally as a High Performance Identity Coach with men who identify as having any disability & are looking to reconstruct & reclaim their identities, I’m now seeing the horrific aftermath of the 2020 Pandemic & the severe decline of male mental health. This is the result of a disconnection from reality, from identity, from life. Close your eyes & take a minute to think about how you are really feeling inside. You are not the same person now that you were in March 2020. How much has the pandemic changed you, & is this for better, or for worse? Now, open your eyes, find your courage to own your vulnerabilities, & begin to make the changes that you know that you need to do.
Join me every Monday for advice on how to really value yourself, how to find the right support, & how to Reclaim your Identity.

07 | The Formula for Producing Healthy & Successful Habits: Three key things we all need to create our own successes
Welcome to Reclaiming Your Identity. I’m your host, Joanne Carrighar-Kearns, and I work with people to do exactly this. On this podcast, I’ll share with you how I figured out who I really am, & how I’ve learned my success from the success of others. You’ll learn how to value unpleasant experiences as a place of reference, rather than a place of residence, & how to focus on what you can control, rather than what you can't.
Today, I’m going to discuss three things that we all need to know about in order to be successful at whatever we wish to be. Having a goal and setting out a plan works well, but only if certain procedures are already in place. The thing is, most of us are already wanting to secretly do these things, but we’ve been conditioned NOT to do them.
I’d like you to think about these three things, and what they mean to you. How can you make sure you’re in a position to access them?

The third concept is never final and will always rely on the previous two, and for me, it also relies on my clients (13:04)
How is the ongoing UK lockdown helping me with my studies? (13:55)
How can I help you more with this & give you some structure to move forwards? (19:45)
