Description

Some of you have been with me for a long time now.

Through the Soul Recovery; What Comes After the Quit and other podcast series.

Through The Daily Rebel Rhythm series.

Through questioning the stories we were handed about productivity, identity, worth, and what it means to live a meaningful life.

You already know I’m not interested in surface-level change.

What I want to share with you today is something that’s been forming quietly underneath all of that work.

I’ve been thinking a lot about quitting.

Not quitting in the dramatic sense —

but the kind of quitting that happens when something inside you finally says,

“I can’t keep living this way.”

For me, the biggest Quit was drinking.

And while stopping mattered, what stayed with me was what came next.

Because after you quit something that once held your life together —

a habit, a role, an identity, a way of coping —

there’s a strange season that follows.

You’re not who you were.

You’re not yet who you’re becoming.

And the old maps don’t work anymore.

I started calling this the season after the Quit because I couldn’t find language for it anywhere else.

It’s not a breakdown.

It’s not a breakthrough.

It’s an in-between —

and it’s where a lot of us quietly get lost.

Once I saw that season clearly in myself,

I began seeing it everywhere.

In people who left careers they had outgrown.

In parents after the house went quiet.

In Rebels who had questioned everything…

only to realize questioning alone doesn’t tell you how to live next.

That’s where the Soul Recovery Reset came from.

Not as a pivot away from the Rebels’ work —

but as a deeper continuation of it.

This isn’t about fixing anything.

It’s about learning how to live after the old structures fall away.

How to listen again.

How to inhabit your life without numbing or performing.

How to rebuild a relationship with yourself when the familiar scaffolding is gone.

If you’ve been walking with me for a while,

and something in this feels familiar —

you’ll understand why this work needed its own container.

I wanted to create a place for that quiet season.

For the honest questions.

For the rebuilding that doesn’t look impressive from the outside,

but changes everything on the inside.

I’m sharing this here first because you’re not newcomers to this conversation.

You already know the rebellion was never about noise.

It was always about coming home.
