#30 - From Hiding to Flying: Why Knowing Who You Are Is Everything

In this 30th episode of Midlife Butterfly, I celebrate the journey of showing up after years of hiding. Creating this podcast helped me face one of my biggest wounds—rejection—and step into visibility with courage and purpose.

 If you're navigating a life transition—divorce, loss, reinvention—this episode is your reminder that midlife isn’t a crisis, it’s your soul awakening. You're not broken. You're remembering who you truly are beneath the conditioning and old stories.

 I talk about going inward, healing the shadow, and reclaiming your worth. When you love and accept yourself fully, you become unshakable. That’s when true midlife transformation begins.

🦋 In This Episode, You’ll Hear:

• What it really took for me to launch this podcast—and why rejection no longer runs the show
• The truth about your midlife “crisis” (spoiler: it’s actually your soul knocking)
• Why hiding parts of yourself keeps you disconnected—and how to start coming home
• How programming, guilt, and people-pleasing shaped your identity—and how to lovingly unlearn it
• A call to become unapologetically YOU (with the ovaries to back it up)

Reflection Questions for Your Soul Journaling:

1. What parts of yourself have you been hiding out of fear, shame, or conditioning?
2. If your midlife is a soul awakening (not a crisis), what is it calling you to remember?
3. What version of you is ready to be celebrated and lived—out loud and unshakable?

My one-on-one coaching is open for those who wish to be guided through this transformation process. Please DM me @MidlifeButterfly on Instagram or @KenaSiu on Facebook to connect. Doing the inner work is the best investment you can make in your life.
