Back to EpisodesRebuilding Your Life Starts With Letting Go of Who You Used to Be (Ep: 76)
Description
SUMMARY If you've been trying to move forward but keep feeling pulled back toward who you used to be, this episode is for you. In this episode of Your New Chapter, Sharlene Lee — women's life coach and starting over specialist — explores why the self you've been grieving may never have been your truest self to begin with. Whether you are starting over, rebuilding your life, or reinventing yourself after a major life change, this season of transition is actually an invitation to finally discover your true identity and move forward with clarity. This is the episode that reframes everything.
WHAT TO LISTEN FOR
- Why does letting go of your old identity feel like grief — even when that old life wasn't working for you?
- Can you identify which version of your old self you've been holding onto — the performed self, the chosen-but-wrong self, or the survival self?
- What does it actually mean to outgrow a version of yourself when starting over — and why is that not a failure?
- Why is the in-between season a necessary part of rebuilding your life — and not something to push through as quickly as possible?
- What is the real invitation of this transition — and how does it change everything about what reinventing yourself actually means?
