Have you ever caught yourself describing who you are with a label that is not quite true anymore?
Not a job title , a label. The strong one. The reliable one. The one who always says yes. The words come out the way they always have, and somewhere in the middle a small part of you notices: that is not really me anymore.
That moment is what an identity shift feels like from the inside. And it is where we start this month's new series: Leading Through Transitions.
In this first episode, I open up about the go-to person I used to be, the one who needed to be in every room, involved in every decision, and the honest truth that the need came from two places at once: real drive, and real fear.
I share why, after I left and started over, I chose on purpose not to become that person again, and what was left once the fear got quiet. I am more grounded now than I have ever been, and the purpose that was always underneath just takes a different shape.
We talk about why we hold onto old labels, why the messy middle is where the real work happens, and how to move through a big change while staying anchored to what is actually true about you.
If something in your life is shifting right now, and you are not sure who you are on the other side of it, this one is for you.
In this episode:
Why you never notice an identity shift while it is happening
The two things we do to avoid the discomfort, holding on and grabbing ahead
A personal story about the label I chose to set down
How to tell the difference between drive and fear
A simple three-part way to hold any transition
Why the unsettled feeling is a marker, not a warning
