Change doesn’t change people. Transitions do. After diving into the literature on the topic, it’s stunning to me that we lack a common language around life’s transitions given how many we encounter either by choice or circumstance all our lives. Sometimes, being in a transition is like losing the plot of your life. And that’s because as anthropologists and psychologists alike say, transitions put us in a liminal state where we must navigate between a past that’s clearly over, and a future that’s still unwritten and uncertain. For that I say, we need a new literacy for understanding life’s transitions seeing as they affect all aspects of our well-being, personally and professionally. Liminal is my new podcast and I chat with experts from around the world to explore what it is about transitions – big or small – that drive us to ask ourselves what more we want to achieve with full heart, or who it is we really want to be.
