Inner Work With MaryAnn Walker: Stop People Pleasing and Start Honoring You! 158: How to Know if it's a Setback or a Life Transition
Ever felt like you were finally making progress, only to be hit with something that felt like a setback? Whether you're moving through divorce, a career shift, or stepping into a new phase of identity, remember: a perceived setback doesn’t mean growth hasn’t happened. It’s just part of the process.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why transitions often feel messy and non-linear—and why that’s normal
- How spring snow is the perfect metaphor for personal growth during uncertain times
- Ways to reframe discomfort as a sign of progress, not regression
- Real-life examples of transitions like divorce, career changes, and empty nesting
- How to honor your growth even when things feel hard
"The snow doesn’t mean that the growth of the daffodils hasn’t happened. Spring is still on its way."
