Ever wake up and wonder, “Who am I, really?” or feel like no matter how much you do, it’s never enough? You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. In this episode, we unpack the root of identity struggles and what it means to stop building your identity and start receiving it from the One who made you.
I'm sharing my personal story of growing up under the shadow of lack and how God began rewriting my identity through truth, love, and grace. This episode is for the woman who’s tired of hustling for worth, caught between expectations, and craving something more stable than performance-based belonging.
You’ll learn how to shift your questions from “Who am I?” to “Whose am I?”—and why that small change leads to a massive transformation.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
-
Your identity is not something you earn—it’s something you inherit. You are not your role, your resume, or your results. You are a beloved daughter of God, and that truth is your foundation.
-
The world's identity script is broken. “You are what you do/have/what others say” will always leave you feeling unstable. God’s truth says you are loved, chosen, and called—regardless of circumstances.
-
Start from love, not for love. In the Kingdom, the order is Know → Be → Have → Do. When you know who you are in Christ, you live from a place of wholeness instead of chasing it.

StoryMaker Challenge:
Take 15 minutes this week to sit with the Holy Spirit and ask: “What identity questions have I been asking?” Then ask, “God, what do You say about me?”
Write it down. Keep it somewhere you’ll see it often. Begin building a habit of reviewing what God has spoken. Let His voice define you—not your past, your performance, or people’s opinions.
