Our lives are constantly changing and evolving…
And this means that we are too.
Without change in our lives we never grow. And if we never grow we never have the opportunity to learn who we really are, what our true potential is and who we can become.
But all change, however big or small, comes with that awkward bit in the middle where we have to let go of the known and reach out into the unknown.
This is called Liminal Space.
And it can be really uncomfortable.
Most of us try to avoid or at best tolerate it as an inevitability that has to be ‘got through’ in order to ‘move on’…
But what if there was another way to experience liminal space?
Not by ignoring or bypassing the messy middle part.
But instead having the courage to stop there for a while…
Curious.
Being compassionate and kind to what comes up
Listening to your intuition
Hearing your own voice
Accepting that change is hard.
It shakes us up and gives us no clear path forward
but…
Its value is that it shines a light on who you are right now
and holds the key to what comes next in your life story.
