The Goo Phase: Navigating the Messy Middle of Transformation

Ever feel like everything in your life is melting into a confusing, chaotic mush? Like you're no longer who you were, but not quite who you're becoming either? Welcome to the goo phase - the messy middle of transformation, where nothing makes sense and everything is shifting.

Just like a caterpillar dissolves into goo before emerging as a butterfly, we too must pass through this strange, in-between space when we’re growing or changing. In this episode, Dr. Melissa Mahon dives deep into what it feels like to be in the midst of personal transformation, how it can be weird, wonky, scary, exhilarating, and even liberating. We explore why this stage is not only necessary but also sacred. You'll hear practical tools for staying grounded during times of uncertainty, from creating simple rituals to trying new practices that help you feel connected to yourself and your vision.

If you’re in the middle of a life transition, career pivot, identity shift, or emotional awakening, this episode is for you. Let’s make peace with the goo and trust that something beautiful is forming on the other side.
