For years, my identity was tied to my career as a 911 dispatcher — a role where I felt needed, purposeful, and important. But stepping into a new season as a realtor brought an unexpected kind of grief.

In this episode, I’m sharing what it’s been like to let go of a version of myself I once knew so well, navigate the shift from being urgently needed to feeling more… ordinary, and process the quiet loss of connection that came with it.

This isn’t about being lost — it’s about being in-between. About learning who you are as life changes, and trusting that your value was never in your role to begin with.

If you’ve ever felt the weight of a transition, this one will meet you there.

If this episode resonated with you, make sure to follow Still Becoming so you don’t miss future conversations about faith, healing, motherhood, and becoming the woman God created you to be.

You can also connect with me on Instagram where I share more about faith, real life, and the process of still becoming.

Thanks for being here.
