How to Find Yourself Again After You’ve Lost Yourself

What happens when a chapter of your life ends, and part of your identity seems to disappear with it?Maybe it was a breakup. A friendship ending. A job you’d built your life around. Burnout. Caregiving. Or simply realizing that the version of you who built your old life isn’t quite who you are anymore.In this solo episode, Gen explores the psychology of why we can genuinely feel like we’ve “lost ourselves” after major life changes and, more importantly, what to actually do about it.We’ll work through 5 psychology-backed steps to help you get reacquainted with yourself, including how to name what you really lost, separate what was theirs, ours and mine, collect evidence of who you are now, experiment with possible versions of yourself, and decide what you want to remember, keep, release and discover.Because maybe you don’t need to reinvent yourself. Maybe you need to get curious about the person who’s already there.Grab a pen for this one. You’ll need it. 🩷🎧 In this episode: self-concept, identity after loss, self-expansion, possible selves, journaling, relationships, career changes, grief, caregiving and finding your way back to yourself.Want somewhere to figure out the messy life stuff alongside other humans?
