The Next Edit - Issue # 45

Your not stuck....it's just a phase.

🧠One Big Idea

You know something is off.

You’ve either left something… or you’re trying to.
And yet, you don’t feel clear, settled, or particularly confident about what’s next.

So you start doing what high achievers do.
You think harder. Plan better. Try to get it right.

And when that doesn’t work, you assume the problem is you.

It’s not - really, I promise.

The problem is simpler than that.
You’re trying to solve for the future… without understanding where you are in the transition.

Transitions don’t happen all at once.
They happen in phases.

If you don’t know which phase you’re in, everything feels like it’s not working.

The 3 Phases

The Long Goodbye – You’ve left, but not really.
The Messy Middle – You’re trying things, but nothing feels clear.
The New Beginning – You’ve found something, but you don’t quite trust it yet.

Understanding where you are in the process of change, is what will help you move forward. You can’t get past something you don’t see.

So, before you try to “fix” anything, figure out where you really are.

You’re not stuck in your life.
You’re stuck in a phase you haven’t named yet.
Once you can see it and name it, you can move through it.

Follow along for the next few weeks as I explore how you can get “unstuck”.
