322. How to feel like yourself again

In this episode of "The Psychology of Your 20s," Jemma discusses the common experience of feeling detached from one's sense of self, particularly during periods of stagnation, survival mode, or misalignment with personal values. She offers practical strategies to reconnect with oneself, including performing an identity re-evaluation, identifying and eliminating obligations that don't align with one's desires, setting daily intentions, engaging in new experiences, creating a bucket list, avoiding social withdrawal, volunteering, and setting personal, non-performative goals. Jemma emphasizes the importance of self-compassion and taking action to rediscover one's true self.
