Losing yourself leads to self discovery
from Life after an ego death · host Ashley Patino
I’m Mia Kamila, currently transitioning from cybersecurity into storytelling and healing. This is my lived experience of growing up in a dysfunctional family, losing myself, and learning how to stay without losing who I am, through @mindfulbreakroom, where everything I speak about comes from lived experience.There was a time when I didn’t understand what was happening to me. I thought I was lost. I thought everything in my life was falling apart. What I didn’t realize was, I was going through something deeper. A slow unraveling of everything I thought I was. In this episode, I share my personal journey growing up in a dysfunctional family with narcissistic patterns, navigating spiritual conflict, questioning faith, and facing parts of myself I didn’t recognize. This is not a story about quick healing. It’s not about cutting everything off and becoming someone new. It’s about what happens after. When the reactions soften. When the identity fades. When you learn how to stay without losing yourself.
