In this episode you’ll hear:
What an identity crisis is and when we normally see them.
The red flags that indicate that you might be in an identity crisis
Questions you can ask yourself to get out of an identity crisis
The ways we make time for ourselves in the midst of a busy motherhood season.
Key Points:

Permit yourself to think about what's going on at every step and transition in motherhood.
Without an identity in Christ, you don't have true North when circumstances change.
It is normal to feelings of grief as we transition through seasons of motherhood.
An identity crisis is often accompanied by feelings that you're not being who you're supposed to be.
