Identity Shifts videos

Below are the best videos we could find on Identity Shifts.

Our sense of identity is created through our sense of belonging to certain groups, classifications, or relationships, such as daughter, uncle, athlete, straight-A student, vegetarian, lawyer, or tea enthusiast. Navigating our approach to life after gaining or losing an important new facet of identity can be daunting or unsettling; when we suddenly lose a key relationship or membership we’ve relied on to identify ourselves, we can even experience an identity crisis. Death of a family member, job loss, divorce, and life-altering injuries are all common major events that challenge the very core of how we define ourselves. At the same time, discovering a new way of defining ourselves through a new label, relationship, or life transition can give us an exhilarating sense of liberation and empowerment. Seeing our identity as a dynamic—not static—feature of ourselves can help leave us open to the constant changes and opportunities our life has to offer.
