Welcome to a new segment on The Guided Podcast called The Messy Middle—a space for the raw, the real, and the unresolved. In this opening episode, I’m inviting you into something tender and true: the ache of being misseen.
What do you do when someone clings to an old version of you—when they distort your growth through the lens of who you used to be? This episode explores the subtle violence of being misunderstood, the grief of being held in a story that no longer fits, and the quiet courage it takes to speak your truth anyway.
This isn’t about proving anything. It’s about reclaiming your voice, letting your story breathe, and laying down the weight of your silence—not for attention, but for liberation.
If you’ve ever felt erased, dismissed, or unseen in your evolution, may this episode be a mirror, a balm, and a bold permission slip:
You are allowed to change.
You are allowed to speak.
You are allowed to be fully seen—even if no one else is looking.
