    EP 027 Future-Self Anchoring: The Identity Trick That Makes Success Inevitable
    Oct 21 2025
    In this episode of Your Success DNA, Tracy invites you to time-travel — not through technology, but through identity. “Future-Self Anchoring” is the practice of aligning your daily choices with the person you’re becoming, not the one you’re escaping. Through vivid storytelling and a three-part framework — See It, Speak It, Sync It — you’ll learn how to connect with the future version of yourself who’s already confident, free, and focused. Discover why success isn’t achieved through hustle but through alignment; why vision boards fade but identity sticks; and how to start making decisions from clarity instead of fear. By the end, you won’t just imagine your future self — you’ll start living as them.
