Hey there! In today’s episode, we’re diving deep into a season I know many of you are familiar with, whether you’ve realized it or not — the Gap Season. This is that uncomfortable, in-between time when you're no longer the person you used to be, but haven’t quite stepped fully into the person you’re becoming.

If you’ve been feeling stuck or like you're not moving forward, but not exactly backwards either, then this episode is for you. I'm sharing all the honest, raw moments I’ve experienced in my own gap season, where I’m in the process of shedding old parts of myself while working toward something new.

You know the feeling: expectations from others still clinging to the old you, while your internal self is pushing for growth and change. You’re in a transition phase, and it’s not always pretty. But here’s the truth: this season is shaping you for what’s next, and I promise, it’s worth it.

I’ll talk about:

• What exactly a Gap Season is and why it’s necessary for your growth
• Navigating the discomfort of leaving behind your old self while embracing the unknown
• Managing external doubts (and how to handle that criticism with grace)
• The importance of community and building a support system that propels you forward
• How celebrating small wins and leaning into your intuition can help you move through this season with clarity

I’ve been there, and I want you to know that if you’re in the middle of a gap season, it’s OK. The discomfort? It’s growth in disguise.

This is all about embracing the process, not rushing through it. This episode will help you gain clarity about your own gap season, and guide you to make confident moves toward your next chapter.

Call to Action:

• If you're navigating a gap season right now, I encourage you to take 10 minutes this week to journal about your experience. What’s coming up for you in this transition phase? What are you holding onto, and what do you want to release?
