When Identity Shatters: Reflections on Alienation and Belonging

Title : *When Identity Shatters: Reflections on Alienation and Belonging* What if the role you built your entire identity around, your job, your family role, your sense of purpose, suddenly collapsed? In this session, we’ll explore these timeless human struggles, drawing inspiration from Franz Kafka’s novella The Metamorphosis, but no prior reading is required. *Main Points of Discussion:* * Are we truly rejected by others, or do we isolate ourselves? * When does caring for others turn into losing ourselves? * What defines us when our roles or bodies no longer align with who we are? * Can unexpected transformations be a beginning rather than an end? Ps: Come with curiosity, not preparation. Venue location: Muse - https://maps.app.goo.gl/imzUVHWF59n3qdP89
