Kristen continues the conversation from last week, pulling back the curtain on her own pivot and exploring why making a change, even when it feels necessary, can be so terrifying. She unpacks why growth often feels like loss, why we cling to the familiar, and how the fear of letting go keeps us stuck in places we’ve outgrown.

Let’s look at a few highlights:

• Growth and grief often go hand in hand—letting go of what’s familiar can feel like a loss, even when we know it’s time for something new.
• We often hold on to what we’ve already invested in, whether it’s a belief, a job, or a relationship, because the fear of abandoning that energy feels overwhelming.
• The fear of inconsistency or betraying others can make us shrink ourselves to protect the peace, causing us to stay in situations that no longer align with our growth.

Kristen highlights that the discomfort we feel around growth is often a signal of progress. The fear of pivoting is normal, but it’s also a sign that we’re standing at the edge of something bigger. The real risk isn’t in the change itself, but in staying where we are, avoiding discomfort, and missing out on what’s possible. 

Pivoting takes courage—and that’s exactly what we need to move forward.
