When the Old Version of You Doesn’t Fit: Outgrowing Who the World Expects You to Be

🪷If something in this spoke to you, I’d love to hear, message me. (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) What happens when you’ve changed internally… but the world still expects the old version of you? In this episode of The Happya Life Podcast, Clare Deacon explores the emotional and psychological tension that arises when you begin to outgrow an identity that once kept you safe, successful, and accepted. This is the stage of growth that many people don’t anticipate. You’ve done the internal work. You’ve rebuilt self-trust. You no longer want to over-function, over-explain, or shrink yourself to keep the peace. But relationships, workplaces, and family systems may still relate to you as who you used to be. And that creates friction. In this episode, Clare explores: • Why outgrowing an identity can feel lonely rather than empowering • The nervous system response to changing relational dynamics • The tension between authenticity and belonging • Why guilt often appears when you stop being the “reliable” or “strong” one • How identity shifts create social consequences • The difference between outgrowing people and outgrowing patterns • Why discomfort doesn’t mean you’ve made a mistake Grounded in positive psychology and nervous system science, this conversation helps you understand why this stage of growth feels so destabilising and why it’s often a sign of integration rather than regression. If you feel like you no longer fit the version of yourself the world is comfortable with, this episode will help you make sense of what’s happening.
