Frequently asked questions
Isn’t identity work just affirmations?
No. Affirmations are repetition. Identity work is reconstruction — what you believe is true about yourself, what you allow, what you stop tolerating, what you start asking for.
How long until a new identity feels natural?
Three to six weeks of consistent embodiment is the typical window. The articles below tell you what consistent looks like.
What if I’m an imposter?
Everyone is, in the beginning of any new identity. The articles below normalize that and show you how to walk through it.
