This episode is a little different. No guest. No perfectly mapped-out lesson. Just me — showing up in the middle of a quiet, in-between season.
You know those times when the words don’t come? When everything feels a little slower, a little foggier… and you’re not quite sure what’s next, but you know you’re not where you used to be? That’s where I’ve been.
Today, I’m inviting you into the pause. The space between clarity and action. The soft unraveling that happens when you finally let your nervous system breathe. This isn’t an episode with big “aha” moments — it’s one that meets you exactly where you are, especially if you’ve been craving permission to slow down, feel more, and do a little less.
If you’re in a season of reflection, reset, or just needing a little more quiet in a loud world — you are not alone.
In this episode:(01:33) - Reflections on a Week of Uncertainty (02:51) - The In-Between Season (03:53) - There Is Power in Not Knowing Yet (05:00) - Embracing the Stillness (05:36) - Finding Clarity and Wisdom in Waiting
