%X In this article, Anna¡¯s occupational life history has been chosen to illustrate one woman¡¯s personal and professional struggle for purpose and identity. Subjective construction is an on-going process and roles and identities are in a constant flux of coping with the tensions between continuity and change. By partaking of private as well as professional experiences, strategies used to maintain Anna¡¯s personal integrity in changeable and often demanding contexts become clearer. Based on interviews, reflections, and discussions, Anna¡¯s story provides authentic insights into the ways in which one teacher has learnt to cope with the demands and challenges in her life.
