Whose life is this? You built it. You chose it. So why doesn’t it feel like yours anymore?
Maybe you checked all the boxes. Built the career. Created the relationship. Became the responsible one, the successful one, the person everyone can count on. And then one day you looked around and thought, Wait... is this actually what I want?
That’s the uncomfortable realization at the heart of this episode.
My guest, Growing Self therapist Tania Chikhani, knows it personally. Before 30, she was managing a half-billion-dollar brand and headed toward an executive career. On paper, she was wildly successful. Inside, as she puts it, her “joie de vivre” was gone.
Because sometimes the life you built was designed for an earlier version of you. Or around what your family wanted. What your partner wanted. What you thought you were supposed to want. And eventually, you have to ask: Who am I now?
In this episode, Tania and I are talking about how to find yourself again when you genuinely don’t know what you want next.
You’ll learn:
Why the life you wanted can suddenly stop feeling like yours
How to figure out what you actually like and want
Why you can’t always think your way back to yourself
How to reconnect with yourself through experimentation and experience
Why your blind spots can keep pulling you back into the same patterns
A powerful “Perfect Day” exercise to help you see what you really want next
If you’ve been looking around at your own life thinking, How did I get here?, this conversation is for you.
And if you’re ready to figure out who you are now and what comes next, schedule a free consultation with Tania at growingself.com/tania.
