In this episode of Planet Em, Emily breaks down her top three science-backed secrets to success—your environment, your identity, and your core beliefs. She explains how everything you consume rewires your brain, why the people around you shape your nervous system, and how your physical surroundings, media, music, and daily habits become mental anchors that either hold you back or help you grow.

Emily also dives into identity shifting, the default mode network, and why your brain works to keep you consistent with who you believe you are. She shares personal examples from her own life, including moving cities, leveling up in her business, writing her book, and how she uses confidence work, affirmations, and evidence-building to rewire her self-concept.

Finally, she breaks down the “success mindset trilogy”: belief in yourself, belief in your worthiness, and belief in the possibility—explaining how each one changes your motivation, dopamine, resilience, and the direction of your life.
