Ryan Wegenast is an identity and transformation coach and the originator of the 📝ID3 framework — also called Three-Dimensional AWE — a model for identity work across three dimensions: Awareness, Wisdom, and Experience. He works with individuals navigating significant identity shifts.
Wegenast is the coach 📝Cynthia Johnson credits with reshaping her thinking in the period before she turned toward the study of selfhood. His ID3 framework treats an identity change not as the loss of one self and the arrival of another, but as a transformation into someone with a different set of priorities, skills, and desires. The framework is a documented precursor to Johnson's current work at 📝Ipseity: Academy of the Self.
Ryan's work gave me the language for what I was already moving toward. ID3 sits upstream of everything I am building at Ipseity.
