You didn’t fail the Reset Sprint.The Reset Sprint exposed you.

Five days of stripping away streaks, silence, and shame. And yeah, I missed day five completely. Not because I forgot… because life showed up. Family needed me more than my reset needed completion. And instead of shame, I felt relief.

Relief that I chose presence over performance.Relief that I chose what mattered over what looked good.

Because here’s I’ve learned:

The reset isn’t the destination. It’s the detox. And detox always gets messy before it gets clean.

This isn’t just a graduation from five days. It’s a graduation from the version of you that needed permission, to the version that gives it.

In This Episode:

* Why missing a day doesn’t break you, it frees you

* The lie that ties your worth to perfect consistency

* How to recognize the “celebration void” when wins feel empty

* A preview of the next arc:

* Borrowed Victories,

* Urgency Addiction,

* Relational Mirrors,

* Leadership From Scars

✦ Reflection Prompts

* What are you celebrating that doesn’t celebrate you back?Where are you winning at a game you never wanted to play?What success in your life feels heavy instead of alive?

✦ Reset Boost (Action Step)

Name one victory in your life that feels empty. Don’t judge it, just listen. That emptiness isn’t failure. It’s information. A signal that says: this wasn’t for me. This was for the me I thought I had to be.

If your wins feel hollow or borrowed, book your No-Cost Identity Clarity Call, and let’s map the truth underneath. We’ll excavate the old identity scripts and align you with a success story that’s actually yours.

✦ On the Next Episode
