#34 When You Feel Behind — But You’re Actually Growing

Season 1 Episode 34 Published 6 months, 1 week ago
Description

High-capacity humans often misread transition as failure. If your growth feels slow, awkward, or invisible — this episode helps you reframe what’s really happening and shows you how to keep moving forward.

If you’ve been doing the inner work but still feel like nothing’s changing — this one’s for you. In today’s episode, Julie Holly names what every high-capacity human needs to hear: you’re not behind — you’re becoming. She shares why transitions are disorienting by design, what happens when your nervous system is mid-shift, and how to anchor yourself in truth when your progress feels invisible. This one will reframe your process and remind you you’re not alone.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVER:
 • Why growth often feels awkward, slow, and invisible
 • How to recognize the tension of becoming
 • The hidden purpose behind disorientation
 • Why high-capacity humans misread transition as failure
 • How Winston Churchill modeled aligned persistence
 • The identity traps that sabotage your sense of progress
 • A personal reflection from Julie’s mid-transition recalibration
 • Why clarity often comes after the courageous step

TODAY’S MICRO-RECALIBRATION
Think of one place you’ve been saying, “I should be further along by now.”
Now pause.
Ask:

  • What if this is what forward looks like right now?
  • What’s the truth about who I’m becoming — even if no one else can see it yet?
  • What can I honor about this quiet part of the process?
     

You’re not behind. You’re becoming. Let that truth settle in.
