Listen "The Wisdom of the Middle"
Episode Synopsis
When you’re in the middle of your story and it appears that no resolution is on the horizon, it’s easy to assume that you must be doing something wrong. Maybe if you were stronger, wiser, or more "positive" you would be able to find a solution and bring your story to resolution. But what if the point of the story is not to resolve the story? What if the unresolved, chaotic, painful middle of a story is exactly where you belong? In today’s episode I’ll talk about our very human impulse to relieve the pain and pressure of our stories, to find resolution, and I’ll also explore what happens when we allow the middle of the story to be exactly what it is: confusing, unsettling, upsetting and painful. Are you in the middle of a story? What would it be like to soften into the middle and let it change you?
