Identity Change

Identity change refers to the process by which an individual’s sense of self evolves or transforms over time, often due to significant life events, experiences, or personal reflection. This can include shifts in beliefs, values, roles, or social identities, such as when someone becomes a parent, moves to a new culture, or undergoes a transformative experience. Such changes can lead to a redefinition of one’s personal identity, influencing how individuals perceive themselves and how they relate to others. Identity change is a natural part of personal growth and development throughout life.
