Life in the Middle with Sharona Patrice
Episode 16: The Middle
How do you navigate the middle?
If you've ever stood at a crossroads in life, or been caught in the overwhelm of a major decision, transition, or season, then you've been in the middle. The middle is a complex, often uncomfortable place in between a beginning and an ending. It's often the space between where you are right now, and where you want to be.
In this episode, I talk about what it's like to be in the middle and how we spend a lot of time navigating the middle parts of life. I share why it's important to embrace this ever-present space and how we can move through the uncertainty to gain insight into ourselves and what the middle is teaching us about our life's journey.
How do you handle being in the middle? Do you embrace all that comes with it, or do you resist every step of the way? Tell me what resonates with you the most about this episode by sharing your thoughts in a review.
Episode Gems:
“The middle is significant because we spend a lot of time in the middle, in the middle of life, and most of us don't like being there. Being in the middle is a very uncomfortable place to be.”
“When I think about the middle, it's the journey. It's the essence of life.
“Being in the middle, it's not black and white. That's what makes the middle hard for a lot of people. It's a lot of gray and a lot of nuance and a lot of uncertainty.”
