We rush past thresholds constantly - the small daily ones and the big life-chapter ones. This episode is about what it costs to leave transitions unmarked, and what changes when we honor our transitions.
In this episode, host Elizabeth Mintun explores why we so often rush past thresholds, both the small daily ones and the bigger life-chapter ones, and what it costs the nervous system when we do. Drawing on polyvagal-informed work and her own training as a psychotherapist and mindful life coach,
Elizabeth unpacks why unmarked transitions get stored in the body as unfinished business - and shares a personal story from a two-year clinical training program that changed how she understands endings.
Key takeaways:
Thresholds aren't just the big, obvious moments; they're daily, and mostly go unmarked
Unmarked transitions can leave the nervous system in low-grade activation, still "waiting" for closure
Ritual and reflection turn a blur of time into distinct, metabolized chapters
