What is my identity now?
In this episode of So, What Brings You to Therapy?, I'm joined by Genevieve Henderson, therapist and host of the podcast What The Hell Do I Do Now?. We dive into a conversation about identity—how it's formed, what happens when it shifts (or shatters), and the ways trauma, culture, and relationships shape how we see ourselves. Genevieve shares her personal experience of losing the identity of an athlete and what it meant to rebuild a sense of self from the ground up. With insight and warmth, she reflects on the messiness of being human, the beauty of becoming, and the healing power of being truly seen.Together, they unpack the non-linear and deeply personal nature of grief, the need for emotional space and support, and the added challenges of grieving in an individualistic culture. Whether you're grieving something tangible or unnamed, this episode is an invitation to honor your experience—whatever shape it takes.
