Who are you when the roles shift?

In midlife, so many of us feel the ground move beneath us. Children grow, parents age, careers evolve, bodies change. And suddenly, the roles we’ve been living inside: mother, partner, achiever, caregiver, don’t define us in the same way.

This episode is an invitation to explore what lies beneath those shifting identities.

I share personal stories of how my relationship with my daughter has changed as she grows into young adulthood, and how burnout challenged the way I’d tied my worth to work. Both moments invited me to reconnect with my values, the deeper roots beneath the surface.

We’ll explore:

- Why midlife so often stirs questions of identity

- How survival roles shape us and what happens when they no longer fit

- What values can offer when roles shift or fall away

- How to re-anchor yourself in presence during transitions

You're not losing yourself, you're remembering that your roots run deeper than your titles.

If you’re navigating menopause, empty nesting, caregiving, or just that inner sense of change, this one’s for you.
