# Become Unfamiliar: Design the YOU of 2026

**Ever feel like you don't quite recognise yourself anymore?**
That unsettling awareness after 40 isn't a crisis. It's an invitation.
The identity you built in your 20s and 30s - the roles, routines, and version of you that "worked" might be feeling a little too tight. Too familiar. Too… not quite right anymore.
You're not alone. And there's nothing wrong with you.

**What We will Explore:**
In this interactive masterclass, discover:
✨ **Why "familiar" is keeping you stuck** and why midlife discomfort means your identity is ready to evolve
🔓 **The Three Identity Prisons**: old roles you're still playing past their expiration date
🎯 **Four permissions to become unfamiliar**: without guilt, fear, or apology
🛠️ **Identity Design Canvas**: prototype the You of 2026 through experiments, not goals

**What You Will Walk Away With:**

* Clarity on who you're ready to *stop* being and who you want to *try* becoming
* A values recalibration exercise aligned with what matters to you *now*
* Permission to disappoint people, to not have it figured out, and to want more
* Three Identity Experiments to test new versions of yourself
* Downloadable Identity Design Canvas for your transformation journey

**This is for YOU if:**

* You've outgrown your own identity
* You're navigating career shifts, empty nests, relationship changes… or restlessness
* You're tired of "self-improvement" and ready for self-reinvention
* You want 2026 to be the year you become someone unfamiliar and exciting
* You're ready to *design* your next chapter, not wait for it to happen

*"When everything familiar fell away, I finally had permission to ask: Who do I actually want to be? Not who I 'should' be. But who I'm excited to become. If you've felt that nudge, this session is for you."* — Alice

**A Friendship Audit for Midlife**

Ever get that feeling? Some friendships have grown with you, while others feel... out of sync.

You're not imagining it. Midlife brings shifts and the friendships that once felt effortless might now feel draining. Or maybe your social circle has gotten smaller than you expected, and you're wondering how to be more intentional about where your energy goes.

If any of this resonates, this session is for you.

📅 22nd January 2026 (Thursday)
🕖 7:00 – 8:00 PM SGT
💻 Zoom (link after RSVP)
*This event is exclusively for Prime Midlife members. Not a member yet? Join free to secure your spot* [here](https://primemidlife.com/)*.*

**What We'll Do Together**
This is an interactive conversation – not a lecture. We'll explore:

* Why midlife changes what we want from friendship (and why that's okay)
* How to spot which relationships lift you up vs. drain you – guilt-free
* Practical ways to reconnect, rebuild trust, or gracefully step back
* A hands-on Friendship Audit to help you focus your social energy where it matters

**You'll leave with:**

* Clarity on who belongs in your next chapter
* A simple framework to assess your relationships
* Permission to honour who you've become
* Real tools you can use immediately

**Who Should Come?**
Anyone who wants friendships that feel supportive, energising, and emotionally safe as we step into 2026. Especially if you're:

* Feeling like your friendships need a refresh
* Navigating shifting social circles in midlife
* Ready to be more intentional about your relationships
* Looking for genuine connection with others on the same journey

New Year, New Chapter! Who's Coming with You?

**When Did You Last Have a Real Conversation About Friendship?**

Not the "how are you?" small talk but the kind that explores what true connection means when old friendships shift, new ones feel elusive, and finding your people seems impossibly hard.

If you're in your 40s or beyond and wondering why adult friendship feels so complicated, this evening is for you.

***What We're Doing***
Join us for an intimate dinner where we'll explore friendship, belonging, and what meaningful connection looks like at this stage of life. Through guided conversation and shared stories, we'll create the kind of evening where you leave feeling seen, understood, and less alone in the journey.
