Reframe the Moment: Chapter 5 - The In Between

Send us Fan MailIn this bonus episode, we continue our weekly series, reading and discussing excerpts from my new book, Reframe the Moment. It's super fun and appropriate because each essay grew out of a Jen is Zen episode, so why not bring it full circle. Today we talk about Chapter 5 - The In Between. This episode feels a little different — more like a page from my journal than a polished podcast.But that’s the point of all of this, right? Identity isn’t something we talk about from a safe distance - it’s something we live through. I feel right inside one of those in-between seasons, where I’m figuring out who I am now, not who I used to be.So if you’re with me in a season of rediscovery, or if you’ve ever felt yourself shifting and growing out of old versions of you, maybe you’ll resonate with how I feel today. The "in-between" is the space between who we were and who we are becoming. And the more we can trust it, the more we can start to see it not as a pause or a waiting room, but as an initiation. Not something to be observed, but something to be embodied. Honor this part of your story. Don’t try to skip over it just because it's uncomfortable or uncertain. Let it teach you something. Let it soften you. Let it remind you that becoming isn't a straight line. It's a trust fall. And you're allowed to be held by the space between who you were and who you're becoming. What would it feel like to fully trust that space?Video (kinda - i accidentally took a photo instead of a video - omg really?!) so had to go back, and the video is only the chapter not my (therapy-session-adjacent) episode. is available on YouTube, my website, and socials (I think y'all know how rare that is for me!
