Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and completely transform how you show up every single day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today.
Today, we're talking about the in-between season of life. That space where everything seems fine on the outside, but inside—you're stretched, tired, and wondering if this is really what "living" looks like. I'm sharing my own journey through this in-between season—the myths we've bought into about busyness and "being strong," and how to trade striving for a life that feels full, peaceful, and alive.
If you've ever found yourself doing all the things yet missing joy, presence, or peace, this episode will speak right to your heart. Together, we'll redefine success, rediscover what truly matters, and take practical steps toward thriving—not just surviving.
Here's what we dive into:
01:26 — Why so many women are holding it all together yet feel utterly drained behind the smile.
02:48 — My behind-the-scenes truth: when perfection and performance hid exhaustion and frustration.
03:55 — What the "in-between" really feels like… mental clutter, fatigue, and a deep longing for peace.
05:55 — The truth: real success isn't found in grinding harder but in living with purpose, peace, and obedience.
08:05 — How to lead and live differently… anchored, on purpose, and fully alive without the burnout.
09:10 — The wake-up signs you're ready for change: running on obligation instead of inspiration, losing your joy, craving more meaning.
10:29 — Using reflection and journaling to pinpoint where you've been surviving and envision what "fully alive" could look like.
13:08 — Small, powerful shifts… setting boundaries, caring for your body, and starting your mornings grounded in God.
15:30 — Building awareness and honesty so your current life aligns with the woman you're becoming in this next season.
Key Takeaway:
"Living constantly on empty is truly not a badge of honor. It's a warning light… That is often where God starts inviting you into something different, not louder, not bigger, just different, a different way."-Jill Allen
"Success isn't built on hustle, but on obedience and peace and purpose… Fully alive, deeply anchored, purpose on fire without burning yourself to the ground." -Jill Allen
