Really loved this, Nik. The three pillars plus dynamic layer make the whole concept of identity feel way more approachable, and I love how you wove in System 1/System 2 and FoRC without making it feel heavy. Great setup for a series too. Already curious to see where you take it next.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you noticing the balance I was aiming for. Making identity both practical and deep has been a core goal.

I’ve actually expanded on each of the three pillars in separate deep-dive articles if you’d like to explore further. And if all goes well, I’ll be publishing the one on the Dynamic Layer this coming thursday.

I’m excited to keep building on this, especially as I explore how these layers play out in real decisions and everyday patterns.

Truly grateful you took the time to read and share your thoughts. It means a lot!
