In this episode of Hope, Healing and Transformation, Lisa explores the awkward, uncomfortable “middle space” that appears after you’ve let go of the old but before the new has arrived. She unpacks why this in-between phase feels so raw and disorienting, drawing on Carl Jung’s “creative tension,” Joseph Campbell’s “belly of the whale,” Ram Dass’s “be here now,” and the neuroscience of neuroplasticity. Through her own story of being “cornered into being the medium” and stripping away old identities, she normalizes the confusion and emotional wobble of transition. Lisa then guides listeners through a grounding and self-inquiry practice, offering an anchoring mantra and reflective questions to help build trust in themselves and in the process, rather than rushing back to what felt safe but wasn’t right.
