This is Where You Begin Again

Reclaim your identity beyond marriage.

A person writing in a notebook with a black pen, the words 'See visitors' can be seen written on the lined paper.

Make sense of your story.

Take a grounded step forward.

Does this resonate?

You are still showing up. Still functioning. Still carrying more than the people around you realize.

But somewhere inside your mind, you have started wondering whether the woman you built was ever really you. Whether your faith is actually your own or someone else's version. Whether the second half of your life can be something genuinely new, or whether you are going to stay on the hamster wheel of performance until you die.

If this finds an echo in your soul…

The Identity Guide is the first step into the slow, honest work of finding out.

Hi, I’m Leslie

When I went through a divorce after 22 years of marriage, I experienced the unraveling of my identity and the long re-rooting of my faith. I learned in that season that the woman I had constructed over the years - competent, faithful, in control - could not survive what was happening to me.

And, most importantly, she was not supposed to.

She had to surrender so that the true me - the woman I am in Christ - could finally come to life.

That is the woman who built Seed Deep Abbey.

This guide is what I wish I had on day one.
