Tags:  #navigatingchange #identity #emptynest 
We are excited to share ideas on how life’s changes influence how we identify ourselves.

Is defining ourselves necessary to give us a foundation or does it just cause stress and impose limits?
What is the relationship between our own identity and how others perceive us?
How do we prepare for change?
With change comes grief for what was or what will never be.
Regardless of how we define ourselves, we must befriend ourselves.
