Who are you when the titles, roles, and expectations fall away?

In the very first episode of Reclaiming Identity, host Abbi DeWitt sits down with Kristen Zuray—founder of the Adi Project, trauma-informed coach, author, and speaker—to explore one of the most important questions we can ask ourselves: What is identity?

Have you ever looked in the mirror and felt disconnected from the person staring back at you? Maybe you've spent years defining yourself by your relationships, career, responsibilities, or the expectations of others—only to feel lost when life changes. In this honest and deeply personal conversation, Kristen shares her own journey of discovering who she truly was beyond the labels of pastor's wife, cop's wife, executive director, author, and founder.

Together, Abbi and Kristen unpack how identity is shaped by our upbringing, relationships, trauma, faith, values, and life experiences—and why understanding your identity changes everything. From the decisions we make to the relationships we build, identity influences our confidence, emotional health, purpose, and resilience through life's hardest seasons.
If you've ever struggled with insecurity, people-pleasing, feeling unseen, or wondering where you truly belong, this episode will remind you that you are not alone—and that healing and clarity are possible.

This episode also introduces the heart behind the Adi Project, the mission of Reclaiming Identity, and the hope that comes from rediscovering who you were created to be.
