How to Become Someone New
Creative practice and the neuroscience of embodied reinvention
“The place in which I’ll fit will not exist until I make it.”
— James Baldwin
I am biologically different than I was five years ago. Not metaphorically. Not spiritually. Neurologically.
The networks that fire when I speak up. The circuits that regulate fear. The pathways that light up when I imagine the future.
They have changed. And not because I “figured myself out.”
Because I practiced becoming someone new.
