Your narrative identity is the story you tell about who you are, where you've been, and where you're going—and this story shapes which possibilities you see as real. Rewriting it doesn't mean pretending your past was different, but rather repositioning yourself as someone capable of authoring what comes next.
Narrative identity is the ongoing story you construct about who you are, where you came from, and where you are going, a story that shapes your self-concept, resilience, and mental health. Research by psychologist Dan McAdams shows that people who frame their life stories with themes of redemption and growth tend to have stronger psychological wellbeing.
