32: When You’ve Grown, But Your Life Hasn’t Caught Up Yet
What happens when you’ve grown, healed, shifted, and expanded… but your outer life still looks the same?
In this soul-stirring episode, Diane explores the tension between internal transformation and external reality. If you’ve ever felt like you’re living in the gap—the sacred space between who you were and who you’re becoming—this conversation is for you.
Through story, reflection, and ritual, you’ll discover how to honor the in-between, trust the unseen, and stabilize as your life catches up to your growth.
What You’ll Learn
🌿 Why the “in-between” season is not failure but integration
🌙 Signs you’re in this tender transition space
🕯 Rituals + practices to honor your becoming without rushing it
✨ A guided reflection to help you root into who you are becoming
Reflection Prompt
Before September begins, light a candle and ask yourself: How do I want to feel about the woman I am becoming?
Let that answer guide how you step into the new month.
