In this episode of Holding It Lightly, Lauren Douglass and Brad Stuart get real about what happens when life knocks you down, and you're forced to make changes you didn't ask for. From job losses to heartbreak, they dive deep into how it feels when things don’t go according to plan, and how to move through it when you’re left picking up the pieces.
They talk about the tough parts of transformation, especially when it feels like the universe is throwing a curveball just when you thought you had it all figured out. But rather than rushing to “fix it,” Lauren and Brad explore how giving yourself space, embracing discomfort, and allowing time to do its thing can actually lead to some of the most powerful shifts. They get into the importance of self-compassion, staying open to uncertainty, and the value of finding small, consistent actions to keep you grounded.
This episode is all about navigating those messy, uncertain moments when life feels chaotic, but also about recognizing that this mess is where transformation happens. So if you’ve ever felt stuck, frustrated, or just plain tired of change, this one’s for you.
