Ep119 - Closing of The Yoga Studio
If you’re a faith-centered, impact-driven Entrepreneur — a Coach, Consultant, Creative, et al — did you know that growing in your business (and your faith) doesn’t have to be a solo sport…? Join Dallas and other like-minded people for a free, live weekly Bible study: www.EntrepreneurBibleStudy.com
EPISODE DESCRIPTION: Are you still you when you’re not actively doing the thing that once defined you? In this episode of the Dallas Daily Show, recorded live from the Neighborhood Loan Studio, Dallas Amsden shares a powerful personal story about his wife’s yoga studio closing — and how it sparked a deeper reflection on identity, purpose, and alignment. We’re not just talking about yoga here. We’re talking about you — and whether your identity is rooted in what you do or who you’re becoming.
IN THIS EPISODE:
- What happens when your roles change… but your calling remains?
- Why your identity can’t be tied to temporary titles
- The difference between doing FROM identity vs. FOR identity
- What it means to act from your FUTURE YOU instead of your past
- The real risk of wrapping self-worth in job titles or productivity
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Just because you're not currently doing something doesn’t mean it's no longer who you are
- Identity must lead — action should flow from your internal wiring, not the other way around
- Your FUTURE YOU is the version of you that makes you feel most alive — operate from that place
- When you stop doing the thing, your identity doesn’t have to crumble if it’s rooted in being
- Ask better questions: Am I doing from a place of being? Or trying to be based on what I’m doing?
