Season 5 Episode 43 - When the Role Starts Owning You...

On today's show, I'm talking about how the roles we identify with can become so important that we struggle to accept changes in ourselves. I'll explore the psychology of identity rigidity, personal expectations, and shame, and how protecting an established identity can begin affecting our relationships. We'll also examine how people can adapt to changing circumstances without abandoning the values and experiences that helped shape who they are.
