147: Who Are You Becoming? Understanding the Deep Work of Identity Change with Michelle Boyde
Manage episode 523591700 series 3455603
In this episode of the Full of Words podcast, Sue Kennedy welcomes Michelle Boyde, an identity alchemist who specializes in guiding individuals through major transitions in identity, purpose, and personal direction.
Michelle works with people who are in the liminal space—the psychological and energetic gap between who they have been and who they’re becoming. She explains why this phase can feel disorienting, overwhelming, and deeply emotional, yet also full of possibility, transformation, and clarity waiting to emerge.
Together, Sue and Michelle explore:
- What identity evolution actually is, and why it matters
- The five common symptoms of being in a liminal phase
- How language influences the subconscious and accelerates change
- The connection between identity, nervous system regulation, and money
- Why physical symptoms often surface during personal transformation
Michelle shares practical ways to recognize whether you’re in this transition, how to navigate it with greater ease, and why many people mistakenly try to “add more information” when the real work is to go deeper into the subconscious, the body, and the beliefs that shape reality.
For anyone experiencing uncertainty about their direction, fatigue without explanation, emotional fluctuation, or a disconnect between old goals and new desires, this episode is for you!
Discover what's needed to fully arrive in your Elevated Self. Embrace the archetype you're embodying in your identity evolution.
