The Daily Distracted

A Liminal December (If You Know, You Know)


Listen Later

December can feel… strange.

Part of you is still finishing the year.
Another part of you is already living in the future.
And somehow, both are happening at the same time.

In this episode of The Daily Distracted, Kristy explores the concept of liminality—the in-between space, the threshold, the hallway between what’s ending and what’s beginning—and why neurodivergent brains live there more often than most.

From flying over mountain ranges to Sunday night energy, waiting rooms, and post-event comedowns, this episode puts language to a feeling many of us experience but rarely name.

Kristy shares:

  • What “liminal” actually means (and why naming it is regulating)

  • Why December often feels floaty, unfinished, and oddly meaningful

  • How ADHD brains naturally navigate liminal spaces

  • What’s actually working for her during this liminal December

  • Why “minimum viable effort still counts”

  • How to keep your world smaller during transitions

  • Using grounding anchors to regulate your nervous system

  • Living in the future before the calendar catches up

  • Asking who, not how—and why it changes everything

If you’ve been feeling behind, off-schedule, or like time is bending a little…
You’re not late. You’re not wrong.
You might just be in a liminal season.

✨ You’re becoming.
