What if you're grieving the woman you had to become to survive the old one?

The strong one. The guarded one.

The one who carried the pain. The one who figured everything out.

The one who survived seasons she once prayed to escape. She got you here.

But Sis, she can't take you everywhere God is taking you next. In this powerful episode of 225 Moments with M.Nicole, we're talking about something we don't discuss enough: Identity grief.

Sometimes growth feels uncomfortable because becoming someone new also requires saying goodbye to versions of yourself that once felt familiar. And familiarity can feel safe, even when you've already outgrown it.

That's why you can pray for new blessings, new opportunities, new relationships, and a completely new life... while secretly keeping the old you around as your Plan B. But your Plan B should NEVER be the old you. 🔥 You'll Discover: • Why growth can create identity grief • Why familiarity can make you miss versions of yourself you've already outgrown • How holding onto the old you can keep you stuck between two identities • Why your Plan B should never be the version of you that lived in survival mode • How old trauma can follow you into new seasons when you haven't fully released it • Why becoming uncomfortable can actually be evidence that you're growing • How to honor the woman you used to be without becoming her again • Why different seasons require different identities, habits, relationships, and support • How gratitude for your growth can create momentum for where God is taking you next 📖 Scripture Reference: "I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten." — Joel 2:25 💫 This Episode Is for the Woman Who's Been Saying: "Why can't I let go?" "Why do I keep going back to what feels familiar?" "I prayed for this new life, so why does change feel so uncomfortable?" "I know I've grown, but part of me misses who I used to be." "Why do I keep falling back into old patterns?" "I don't want to lose myself while becoming someone new." If that's you, this episode will remind you that you don't have to hate the old you to release her.

Honor her. Thank her.

Take the lessons. Take the strength.

Take the wisdom. But don't keep resurrecting a version of yourself whose assignment is complete.

There is a version of you that you had to become in order to survive, and that's okay. But God has you on a greater path now.

You can honor who you were while fully choosing who you're becoming. Your Plan B cannot be the old you. 🎙️ Podcast Schedule: New episodes drop bi-weekly on Tuesdays at 7:30 PM ET.
