Shownotes

In this episode of Originate Now, Jessica Higgins Chapman explores the art and psychology of reinvention and why it’s never too late to reimagine your life, your work, or your creative identity.

From identity shifts to creative pivots, she shares how each version of you is a part of your evolving journey, and why reinvention is less about starting over, and more about remembering who you really are.

You’ll also learn a little science behind “becoming who you want to be,” plus a creative challenge to help you reconnect with your next chapter in a grounded, soul-centered way.

We're becoming always, in all ways... take a listen!

In This Episode, You'll Learn:

  • What “reinvention” really means
  • How to release old identities and make space for your next chapter
  • The psychology behind becoming — self-concept clarity and the science of aligned action

Quote of the Week: "We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.” - Maya Angelou
