What happens when your self-identity is threatened, or you loose it? You get triggered!
Manage episode 330314683 series 3286387
In this episode we are going to start to explore self-identity and how we can trigger ourselves based on who we identify as as an individual.
So, what is self-identify? Your self-identity is a combination of personality traits, abilities, physical attributes, interests, hobbies, and/or social roles from your personal identity that you specifically selected to identify yourself, or that you have been influenced to identify yourself as.
A strong sense of self is vital, especially in this day and age. With so many external influences and variables that can change our lives in an instant and pull the roots out from where we stand, a robust sense of self is what keeps us grounded and on the right course. A strong sense of self allows us to go through any storm we may encounter without being swayed by the winds of change.
Developing our own sense of self is really important and beneficial. But when other question our sense of self – or if we question our own sense of self – we can find ourselves feeling triggered because it feels like the rug has been pulled out beneath us.
Let's have a conversation around self-identify and how threats to or loss of self-identity can leave you triggered.
Also, here is the list of self-reflection questions we talk to in this episode:
· What am I good at?
· What am I so-so at?
· What am I bad at?
· What makes me tired?
· What is the most important thing in my life?
· Who are the most important people in my life?
· What do I like about myself?
· How much sleep do I need?
· What stresses me out?
· What relaxes me?
· What’s my definition of success?
· What type of worker am I? What work do I enjoy?
· How do I want others to see me?
· What makes me sad?
· What makes me happy?
· What makes me angry?
· What type of person do I want to be?
· What type of friend do I want to be?
· What do I think about myself?
· What things do I value in life? What are my personal values?
· What makes me afraid?
Happy self-reflecting!
