We all have many roles that we play throughout our day: employee, athlete, student, teacher, parent, sibling, friend, or partner. With self-isolation and stay-at-home orders, these roles have shifted. Some parts of our identity may be used more than they were before, such as caretaking for children or siblings during this time. Some parts of our identity may feel lost or look totally different, such as trying to be an engaged friend or student during this time. Ball State University created a PowerPoint that speaks to these shifts in identity and ways to accept and manage these changes.
