Ep. 1: Navigating the In-Between: Embracing Change and Transformation
This Week in Life, I’m reflecting on the feeling of being lost during times of transition and change. Inspired by the work of Francis Weller, I explore what it means to navigate the liminal space between who we once were and who we are becoming. As I share my own experiences of chosen and forced initiations—like becoming a mother and coping with loss—I invite you to consider the emotional complexity that comes with these pivotal moments.
In this episode, we’ll delve into:
The concept of initiation and the significance of the in-between space as we undergo transformation.
How we can choose to “ripen” in these moments, allowing our pain and grief to become sources of wisdom rather than obstacles.
The challenges of navigating multiple identities, especially during significant life changes, and how to honor the grief that accompanies our growth.
Practical strategies for embracing feelings of being lost and cultivating compassion within ourselves during these difficult times.
I share a personal story about my journey through motherhood and the raw emotions that surfaced, reminding us that it’s okay to feel lost and to allow ourselves to grieve what we have left behind. This episode encourages you to pause, breathe, and acknowledge your own feelings of uncertainty, inviting you to surrender to the process of transformation.
Join me in this exploration of the sacred in-between as we discover how to create space for our emotions, learn from our experiences, and step forward into our evolving selves with love and grace.
As always, I’m sending you so much love during this initiatory season of life, and I invite you to take it one step at a time.
