The grief of becoming someone new.

Healing changes us.

Grief changes us.

Life changes us.

And sometimes, somewhere along the way, we wake up and realize we are not the same person we used to be.

That can be beautiful.

It can also be surprisingly painful.

Because even when growth is good, it often requires letting go of old identities, old coping mechanisms, old ways of relating, and old versions of ourselves that once helped us survive.

Sometimes it’s about learning how to let go of who you needed to be in order to survive it.
