I want you to bring to mind notable figures who have a strong presence, an almost larger-than-life identity or story: Tony Robbins, Mother Theresa, Brene Brown, George Soros, Stephen Hawking, Robin Sharma, John Paul DeJoria (Mitchell,) the Dalai Lama, JK Rowling, Henry Ford, Roger Banister….

Without them saying a word, you can FEEL their presence when they walk into a room. WHO they are is completely intertwined with what they DO. But can they DO things because of BEING who they are?

The APA Dictionary of Psychology defines ‘identity’ as “an individual's sense of self defined by (a) a set of physical, psychological, and interpersonal characteristics that is not wholly shared with any other person and (b) a range of affiliations (e.g., ethnicity) and social roles.” A psychological identity relates to self-image, self-esteem, and individuality.
