163: The Culture of Becoming: How the World Is Quietly Shaping Who You’re Becoming

We don’t just grow in private.

We become inside a culture.

In this episode of The Becoming You Show, we explore the Culture of Becoming — the invisible narratives, expectations, and values that quietly shape who we believe we’re allowed to be.

From success and productivity to healing, identity, and “doing the work,” culture is constantly telling us what matters, what’s acceptable, and what growth is supposed to look like. Most of us absorb these messages without ever questioning them — and then wonder why our growth feels exhausting, confusing, or misaligned.

In this conversation, we’ll unpack:

How culture influences identity more than we realize

Why personal growth isn’t just personal — it’s contextual

The difference between becoming who you should be and who you actually are

And how to begin choosing your identity consciously instead of inheriting it unconsciously

This episode isn’t about rejecting culture — it’s about seeing it clearly, so you can decide what you keep, what you release, and who you’re becoming on purpose.
