Episode Description

Not all transitions are the same. So why are we holding ourselves to the same timeline?

In this episode, we explore the 5 Seasons of Transition—a framework that helps you stop measuring yourself by wrong expectations and start honoring where you actually are.

You'll learn:

  • Why seasonal thinking dissolves guilt and creates clarity
  • The 5 distinct types of transition and what each needs
  • How to identify which season you're in right now
  • What to do when you're in multiple seasons simultaneously

Whether you're healing from burnout, exploring new directions, making adjustments, bringing parts of yourself together, or starting over—this episode helps you name your season and understand what it needs.

The 5 Seasons

Recovery - Healing from burnout, loss, or difficult experiences. Needs: Rest, boundaries, permission to go slow.

Reinvention - Exploring new directions and questioning old identities. Needs: Curiosity, experimentation, tolerance for uncertainty.

Redirection - Adjusting course while staying in similar territory. Needs: Strategic thinking, measured adjustments.

Integration - Bringing together different parts of yourself. Needs: Time to reflect, both/and thinking, patience.

Rebuilding - Starting over after major life change. Needs: Foundation-first thinking, sustainable pace, intentionality.

"When you name your season, you stop measuring yourself by the wrong timeline. You give yourself permission to need what you actually need."
