Listen "The Messy Middle"
Episode Synopsis
“You are not a burden. You may have been given a strong back to carry a lot — but you’re allowed to set it down.”In this open-hearted episode, I speak from the middle of the in-between — not who I was, not yet who I’m becoming — just here, in the thick of life. Raw, real, and unresolved.I share:What the “messy middle” actually feels likeWhy Earth has no place for perfection (and why that’s a good thing)The hidden cost of being the strong oneHow grief, career shifts, and emotional dismissal shaped this seasonThe power of storytelling in reclaiming our voice and valuePractical reflections for those in transitionThis episode is for anyone grieving what was, unsure of what’s next, or holding a quiet question they don’t yet have words for. You’re not alone — and you don’t have to go through it alone.Take this with you: You’re allowed to pause. You’re allowed to ask for help. The messy middle is sacred ground, too.→ Connect with me on Instagram: @brooklincbuchanan
