Episode 234: Navigating the Messy Middle (aka the Liminal Space)

The Morning Light Show with Adair Cates

My friend Barbara Leahy introduced me to a new word that she knew would spark this episode! Are you ready for it?

LIMINALITY - the in between moments, the space between the inciting incident and the protagonist's resolution. It is often a period of discomfort, of waiting, and of transformation. A place where your old habits, beliefs and even personal identity disintegrates.

This space is a metamorphosis; a moment in time when you know the person you were before and after would be completely different, much in the same way that a caterpillar becomes a butterfly. Perhaps this has happened when you were between jobs, on a weight loss journey, struggling in a relationship, or after losing a loved one.

On today's show, hear my two cents on how to move through these times of uneasiness and discomfort to become the YOU you're meant to be.
