Ep. 2 Identity: It’s Not a Crisis, It’s a Shift

In this episode:

• When the feeling of “I don’t know who I am anymore” first appears

• Sudden identity shifts vs the slow erosion of self

• How much of who we were was tied to roles — work, motherhood, relationships

• What happens when those roles change or fall away

• The grief — and relief — that can sit side by side

• Whether we’re trying to go back… or becoming someone new
