We all have seasons in our life where we are stuck or in transition. Whether it's in our personal or professional lives, being in that in between place can be very uncomfortable and it creates uncertainty. In this solocast, Michele walks you through three steps to get connected to the truth of your situation to get you moving forward towards the life you want to live. Just remember, you are not alone when you are in this place. We all experience these "stuck" places, especially when we are actively trying to live our truest, most expressed version of ourselves.

In this solo episode, I open up about a realization I had while traveling through Europe — and share how I rediscovered why values matter.

You’ll also hear — what it means to receive and feel worthy again; how a trip to Europe cracked open a forgotten value; the emotional terrain of perimenopause and self-trust; the importance of not gaslighting ourselves through change, and why boundaries are sacred and BS of any kind is no longer tolerated. Hope you enjoy and feel free to share it with a friend!
