What if the gap between where you are and where you want to be… is actually where your growth lives?

In this episode of The Healing You Method Podcast, Gloria Lybecker and Gail Donohue explore the space between your current reality and your desired outcome—and why this "in-between" phase can feel both activating and overwhelming.

So many people get stuck here… not because they're doing something wrong, but because they don't understand the kind of tension they're experiencing.

Not all tension is the same.

This conversation introduces the difference between creative tension—the energy that moves you forward—and psychological tension—the pressure that pulls you into self-doubt, frustration, and inner criticism.

Together, we explore:

• Why the gap between where you are and where you want to be can feel so uncomfortable
• How to recognize when tension is supporting growth vs. creating resistance
• Why the inner critic gets louder during times of expansion
• How to move from overwhelm and self-attack into clarity and forward momentum
• Practical tools to stay grounded and connected while navigating change

If you've been feeling stuck, discouraged, or caught between your vision and your current reality, this episode offers a grounded and compassionate reframe—one that helps you work with the process instead of against it.

Because transformation doesn't happen by avoiding the gap… It happens by learning how to stand within it.

You're invited to listen with curiosity—and notice what's shifting for you.
