Episode 178. Using Visualization, Imagery, and Identity Work to Support Long-Term Health Motivation with Psychotherapist Margo Green

Long-term change isn’t just about knowing what to do—it’s about how we see ourselves while we’re doing it. In today’s podcast episode, we explore why so many people get stuck in that gap between where we are and who we’re trying to become.

I’m joined by Registered Psychotherapist Margo Green, and we talk about how visualization and imagery can make the future feel more real and connected to who you are today. We also dive into identity-based motivation, and how the way you see yourself quietly shapes your behaviours—often more than motivation ever does.

We cover practical ways to use these tools during difficult moments, and how to begin shifting identity in a realistic, sustainable way.

Key takeaway: Motivation fades, but identity drives behaviour.

If you’re feeling stuck, start with one small shift in how you see yourself—and take action from there.
