Have you ever considered the immense significance a name carries, particularly when it's your own? Erika Zeb joins us as we navigate the labyrinth of emotions, personal experiences, and legalities that changing one's name involves. We dive into how name changes, often triggered by significant life events like marriage or divorce, can profoundly impact our identity. 

 

The complexities of identity go beyond names and into concepts like self-perception. Can we truly love and accept ourselves? Erika candidly shares her personal journey from career woman to stay-at-home mother, shining a light on the tumultuous emotional shift she experienced. We also scratch the surface of the societal obsession with beauty standards, unraveling the liberating potential of self-acceptance. 

 

We also grapple with gritty topics such as reparenting, body acceptance, and the role of nourishment in our overall well-being. We round out the episode by underscoring the importance of empathy, understanding, and patience. Teasing you with a sneak peek of future episodes focusing on self-leadership, we invite you on this journey of self-discovery and transformation.
