How do we become who we are? The podcast How to Build a Person explores the architecture of identity—how beliefs, culture, memory, language, relationships, and trauma shape and transform our sense of self.
​
Each episode centres on a conversation with someone who has had to radically rethink who they are—whether due to major life transitions, cultural displacement, personal crisis, or ideological shifts.

​

Some guests have rebuilt themselves after leaving high-control or cultic environments. Others have reshaped their identity after grief, migration, gender transition, or fundamental belief changes. Paired with expert commentary from psychologists, sociologists, and philosophers, these stories reveal the components of identity formation that we often take for granted.
