EP 89 “I Was Living Outside of Myself”: Reclaiming Identity After Adoption | Brooke Haynes

EP 90 Redefining Identity: Belonging, Culture and Coming Back to Yourself | Soon Mee Kim

“I had to redefine who I was… on my own terms.” In this episode, Soon Mee Kim shares her journey of navigating identity through the lens of culture, expectation, and lived experience. What begins as a personal reflection opens into something many women understand — the quiet pressure to become who you’re supposed to be, and the slow realization that it may not fully align with who you are. Her story highlights the tension between belonging and authenticity, especially when identity has been shaped by forces outside of your control. Over time, that tension can lead to a subtle disconnection — a sense of performing rather than living from truth. What unfolds in this conversation is the process of coming back. Rebuilding self-trust. Reclaiming your voice. And learning how to honor where you come from without abandoning yourself in the process. Learn more about your ad choices.
