In this episode of Blank Pages, we explore a question that sits beneath so many of life’s transitions: Who are we becoming?

Last week, we talked about change and what it means to turn the next blank page. This week, we shift the conversation toward identity—not just the roles we hold or the jobs we’ve had, but the deeper values and inner motivations that shape who we are.

We reflect on how easy it is to define ourselves by what the world sees on the surface: our careers, our titles, our responsibilities. Yet when those external markers shift—through retirement, career transitions, becoming a parent, or even moving abroad—we’re often left asking ourselves who we are beneath it all.

Together, we share personal stories about how our identities have evolved in the face of big life changes, how our values have anchored us, and where we’ve had to make tough choices that tested those values. We also talk about the surprising moments of self-discovery that come when life finally gives us the space to pause and reflect.

At its heart, this episode is about remembering that identity is not fixed. We’re all continually growing, questioning, and reshaping who we are—at any age and in every season.

Join us as we open another blank page and explore the journey of becoming.

In our very first episode, we introduce Blank Pages and talk about what it means to turn the page in life. From moving abroad to entering a new season after decades of work, we explore how change shapes us, what it feels like to start fresh, and how we each navigate the uncertainty and possibility of new beginnings.
