Description

In this episode, I explore the profound cycle of death and rebirth we experience during career transitions. Learn why letting go of old identities is essential before you can fully step into your new path and how resisting this natural cycle keeps you stuck in limbo.

What We'll Cover:

• How nature's wisdom teaches us to embrace both death and rebirth
• The biological parallel of apoptosis (programmed cell death) in our personal transformations
• Why you can't fully bloom in your new season without releasing the old

Signs You're Stuck Between Identities:

Clinging to Past Status

Introducing yourself by your former title

Checking your old company's updates obsessively

Keeping your corporate ID "just in case"

Hiding your current financial reality while comparing to past income

Using Safety Mechanisms

Endless credential collecting before launching

Perfectionism preventing you from publishing your work

Maintaining unnecessary backup plans

Comparing your beginning to others' middle chapters

Making Decisions from Fear

Setting prices based on old industry standards

Taking clients who drain your energy but validate your old identity

Constantly moving the legitimacy goalpost

Exhaustion from maintaining dual identities

Reflection Questions for Your Journey:

• Are you experiencing physical symptoms of being in liminal space (insomnia, anxiety)?
• Do you speak of your new path in present tense ("I am") or future tense ("I'm hoping to")?
• What parts of your previous identity serve as your "backup plan"?
• How does your calendar reflect your true priorities and identity?
• What would complete surrender to your new path look like?
• Are you making decisions from abundance or scarcity?
• Is your nervous system sp
• What would your future self lovingly tell you to let go of right now?

Just as nature flows through its seasons without resistance, you too can embrace both the winter of letting go and the summer of full bloom in your career evolution.
