About this book
In a world overcrowded with labels, don't allow your identity to be defined by other people. Learn how to take back your power, choose to feed the aspects of your identity that serve you, and let go of those that don't.
Everyone feels like an outsider at some point in their life-when we walk into a room and think to ourselves, I don't belong here. To avoid these feelings of exclusion, many of us hide our authentic selves and allow others to define our identity.
You Belong Here offers a new framework that allows each of us to define how we want to be seen, heard, and valued on our own terms so we feel a sense of belonging in any situation. Further, it serves as a launchpad for organizational leaders and culture builders to create safe spaces for individuals to show up as their authentic selves.
Readers will explore our four identities:
When we fully leverage this and live with authenticity and purpose, we can be seen, heard, and valued in a way that gives us a sense of belonging at home, at work, and in society. Belonging is realized when we understand everyone is an outsider and it's the power to create space for those differences that unite us all.

Readers will explore our four identities:
- Our Lived Identity is made up of the aspects of our identity we inherit when we are born into the world.
- Our Learned Identity includes the parts of our identity that we've chosen or claimed as we make our way through the world.
- Our Lingering Identity is the identity we default to when we feel like an outsider and fall back into as a survival mechanism.
- Our Loved Identity is where we find our authentic selves and see ourselves through a lens of empowerment.
