326: This Is Why You Feel Stuck (And What to Do When You’re in the Void)

What do you do when your old self no longer fits, but the new you hasn’t fully arrived yet? In this heart-centered solocast, I’m taking you deep into what I call the “gap season”—that uncomfortable, messy middle where everything feels unclear and your identity gets shaken up. Whether you're navigating a career shift, launching a new vision, or simply feeling off in your current life, this episode will help you honor the void rather than rush through it. This is for all my high-achievers, cycle-breakers, and visionaries who are in the in-between and craving clarity, grounding, and realignment.
