    What happens when your identity shifts… again?

    In this episode of Same Shit, Different Mom, Carly Ely shares a raw and honest life update. After months of being quiet online, Carly opens up about her personal and business evolution—how she’s moving beyond labels, pivots, and expectations to embrace full transparency in her journey. She reflects on her shift from school psychologist to sleep consultant to conscious motherhood mentor, and now toward a deeper focus on self-leadership and multidimensional identity as a late-diagnosed neurodivergent woman. Carly explores the tension between wanting to present polished expertise versus sharing what’s truly alive in the moment. She describes how her mentor challenged her to stop overthinking and start documenting her journey daily—even if it feels messy, imperfect, or self-indulgent. This episode invites listeners to embrace their own evolving identity, trust their inner wisdom, and recognize that the right people will resonate with their story, even if it’s unfinished.
