Change doesn't always arrive the way we expect it to.

Have you ever had your world turned upside down, only to realize later it was the doorway to something better? Something bigger? Maybe even something more honest?

Whether change knocks politely or crashes through your door uninvited, it always asks something of you—and it offers something in return.

Change is never just logistical. It’s always personal.

Beneath the disruption lies a tender terrain where grief and opportunity dance together. The unexpected emotions that arise during change aren't signs you're doing it wrong, but evidence you're growing into someone with greater capacity.

Regenerative leadership, in life and in our work, begins not with denying the messy parts, but with giving yourself permission to feel it all.

This week, Karlee kicks off part one of a three-part series on Navigating Change. She explores the multifaceted nature of change, acknowledging and embracing the complex emotions that accompany transitions.

In this episode, you’ll hear personal anecdotes and client stories that illustrate how both chosen and unexpected changes can lead us through grief to growth and help us uncover new opportunities in the process. You’ll learn practical strategies for navigating change with resilience and emotional honesty, inspiring you to reflect on your own experiences and the lessons that came with them.

If you’re ready to feel what’s necessary in this moment so that you can process the lessons and lean into the growth that awaits, then this is the episode for you.
