Ep. 17 Gen X Unplugged: 3 Key Observations on Change and Transition
“Think of transition or shifts as the tiny micro moments that eventually make up the big change that you notice.”
In this week’s shorty solo episode, Michele dives into 3 key observations about the distinctions between change and transition that can make all the difference in how you face (or don’t face) life’s changes.
The reason these observations are key is because when change has happened to us, or when we’re anticipating making a change, we can become so focused on the gap between where we are now and where we were or want to be after the change, that we freeze in our tracks. And, as Michele shares, there are 3 obstacles that change presents to us that can make that gap seem like too much ground to cover.
The result: we feel lost, hopeless, and trapped between “before” the change and “after” the change.
And, when we can learn the difference between “change” and “transition,” as well as the importance of focusing on the subtle transitions rather than the huge change, we can find a different perspective for moving through life’s changes.
This podcast is called The Gen X Shift for a reason . . . it’s not the The Gen X Change. The subtle shifts are where true change lies.
