Identity Shifting
What’s that?
It’s a term I’ve been using to describe how I feel about the change and transformation I have and am going through over the past 12 months; from leaving my 9-5, to pretty much selling up my life in London, combining travelling and work, and managing my business in co-working places around the world - based on my shifted ‘identity’. The identity within myself and that portrays itself to the outside world. My so-called brand identity.
It’s an evolution, a growth, peeling the old layers back allowing new layers to emerge, and moving my identity closer in alignment to who I am. A change in the way you see yourself, the world around you and the action of manifesting your desired reality.
Identity shifting is a journey of self-discovery and can be a tool for personal growth, helping individuals understand their preferences, values, and the aspects of identity that resonate most with them. It can also help individuals challenge societal norms and expectations.
It’s not wiping away who Susanna was, it’s a blossoming into who I really am. Doing the things I love, and serving in a way that sparks my energy. Immersing myself in nature and communities that inspire me. Connecting with people on a deeper level. Having fun. And creating my life one experience at a time.
Your identity, almost unintentionally, builds your life. When you want to build your life in a different direction, the solution most people say is, “I’ve got to work harder.” To an extent, that may be true. However, if you’re just focused on working hard, you’ll burn yourself out.
A lot of people fall short because they don’t realise that it isn’t just a matter of mindset or information. It’s who you are with that mindset and information. When you can see who you are and the person you need to become, and you understand that, that’s where the true magic is! You start creating way more space, growth and vastly more success. And it feels more in alignment with who you see yourself to be.
As I move into my next growth stage of life as a solopreneur/self-employed lifestyle creator, the one word that comes to mind is LIBERATED. Liberated and excited to start this new adventure travelling, writing, creating content, podcasting and stepping into who I really am, living my authentic life.
