There's a version of transition we talk about — the before and after, the glow-up, the lesson learned. This episode isn't that one.
This is about the middle. The part where the old thing is gone but the new thing hasn't arrived yet. The part where you don't quite know who you are on the other side, and growth doesn't always feel like growth.
In this episode, Mechelle explores the real difference between change and transition — and why getting that distinction right changes everything. Drawing on the work of author and organizational consultant William Bridges, she walks through the three phases most transitions move through: the ending, the neutral zone, and the new beginning — and why the middle is the place we most need to stop rushing through.
She also gets personal. About her own season of significant transition, about the pressure to have meaning before the wound is finished being a wound, and about the moment she realized she had built something beautiful — and also built it in a way that quietly skirted her own unfinished grief.
This episode is for anyone in the disorienting in-between. You'll walk away with something real to practice — not a way to speed things up, but a way to finally let them move.
In this episode:
Why change and transition are not the same thing
The three phases of transition (and the one we most want to skip)
What it costs to rush into meaning before you've finished feeling
