December 29th feels awkward - you're not quite recovering, not quite planning, just... in between.

In this episode, Coach Janet J explains why "liminal space" (the threshold between what was and what will be) feels so uncomfortable, and introduces "The Threshold Practice" - a simple 3-part approach that takes about 5 minutes to honor this sacred transition time instead of fighting it.

What You'll Learn:

• Why the days between Christmas and New Year feel so disorienting (anthropology + neuroscience)
• The concept of "liminal space" and transition shock
• How to stop fighting the in-between and start honoring it
• The Threshold Practice: a 3-part ritual (acknowledge, check-in, release)
• Why you DON'T need everything figured out by January 1st

Scripture Highlight:

"There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens... He has made everything beautiful in its time." Ecclesiastes 3:1 & 11

This special Christmas Eve episode of Your Next Best Step Podcast is a gentle reminder that God doesn’t ask for perfect - He asks for real.

If your Christmas feels tired, imperfect, or not quite magical, this message is for you. Your presence matters more than your performance, and that is enough.
