Ever felt stuck in between—no longer who you were, but not quite who you're becoming? That’s the space we explore in this episode: the uncomfortable, often confusing middle of transformation. It’s a place many of us land on the path of growth, and while it can feel disorienting, it holds powerful insight if you know how to move through it.
Nicole opens up about her own recent experience navigating this phase and how similar themes have surfaced for her clients. With Human Design as the compass, she unpacks what it means to stay present and intentional when nothing feels aligned or certain—and why rushing to fix it might actually pull you further away from where you're meant to go.
You’ll hear honest reflections on the urge to control through action, the temptation to retreat to what’s safe, and the magic that happens when you ask the right questions—especially the one that matters most: What do I really want?
This episode offers a grounded, empowering perspective for anyone standing at a personal or professional crossroads, and a reminder that growth rarely feels good—but it always leads somewhere meaningful.
