Chapter 2: Reconnecting with Your True Self

The Journey Back to You

Have you ever stood in front of a mirror and barely recognized the person staring back?

Maybe it happened after a major life transition—your kids leaving home, stepping away from a role that once defined you, or simply waking up one day and realizing you’ve lost touch with yourself.

Maybe you’ve spent years being everything for everyone else, holding space, making sacrifices, showing up in the ways you were needed. And now, in the stillness of this new season, a quiet question rises:

"Who am I now?"

This chapter is about remembering. Not reinventing. Not fixing. Remembering.

Your true self—the essence of who you are beneath the expectations, responsibilities, and identities—is still here, waiting for you to come home.
