What if the phase of your midlife transition that feels the most uncertain and untethered is not a sign that something has gone wrong - but the place where everything important is quietly taking root?

Most women navigating a career or life transition want to move through the uncomfortable in-between as quickly as possible. The pressure to decide, to act, to just feel like something is moving again is real - and it is exactly what causes so many accomplished women to end up six months later feeling like something is still missing. This episode offers a reframe that may change the way you experience where you are right now.

Drawing on the work of William Bridges, who spent decades studying how humans move through change, this episode unpacks the three phases of any transition - and makes the case that the phase you most want to escape is the one that holds the most important information about who you are becoming.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why the in-between phase of a midlife career or life transition is not empty - and what is actually happening inside it when everything on the surface feels uncertain and still
  • How rushing past the neutral zone leads accomplished women to take action driven by urgency rather than alignment - and why the outcome always feels like something is still missing
  • Two powerful questions from William Bridges that Kavita uses with almost every coaching client to help women in transition identify what is ready to be released and what is quietly waiting to begin

Press play to find out which phase of your transition you are in right now - and what this season of your life may be asking you to notice before you take your next step.

If you are in the in-between right now and ready to do the real work of the neutral zone rather than rush past it, schedule a Clarity and Next Chapter Call with Kavita - just the two of us, figuring out where you are, what's ending, and what aligned action actually looks like for you.
