In this episode of Trending with Timmerie, she investigates the Gen Z love affair with labels; no, we're not talking about fashion brands.    Timmerie points out that Gen Z is super into self-labeling, including with mental health and personality traits. You’ll hear:   - “I have ADHD.”   - “I’m OCD.”   - “I’m an introvert, dyslexic, and BPD.”   But why the label craze?   Because Gen Z is on a relentless search for identity. They crave belonging and meaning in a world where traditional anchors (like faith, family, and community) feel shaky. Labels become their badges of honor but also shields, a way to explain their struggles and find their place.   Timmerie isn’t here to shame anyone; she gets that these are real wounds and real challenges. But she makes a bold claim: Labels shouldn’t define us. God does.    She reminds you that your deepest identity isn’t found in personality tests, diagnoses, or even life circumstances: it’s found in being made in the image of God. When we know that... we’re not trapped by labels; we’re freed from them.   Takeaway:
Gen Z isn’t broken; they’re searching. The answer isn’t another label: it’s love, purpose, and identity rooted in Christ.    How can you influence someone you know in this generation to reclaim their God-given identity today?
