When You Lose Direction: Harnessing Liminal Spaces

from Seeking Simplicity · host Louise Cartwright

Welcome back, listeners! In this episode of Be More Lobster, I dive deep into the season of life when you just don’t know what’s next—and maybe don’t even care about finding out. I explore what it means to lose momentum, vision, or direction, and how for action-takers and growth-driven women, that uncertainty can feel incredibly uncomfortable and even wrong.You’ll hear me share my personal journey through loss and transition, especially after losing my dad. I open up about what it felt like to be completely lost, directionless, and disconnected from my sense of purpose—not just as a daughter, but as a business owner.Highlights from the episode include:Why “not knowing” what’s next is sometimes the most powerful place you can find yourselfThe concept of liminal space: that uncertain transition between what was and what’s nextHow business can become a false source of certainty and identityPractical reflections for distinguishing between a true season of transition and a fear-based avoidance strategyPowerful prompts to shift from resistance and pressure into curiosity and self-trustI encourage you to ask yourself:Where are you creating pressure because your brain is demanding certainty?How could you let go of needing big answers right now?What would it feel like to trust that you’re exactly where you need to be?Remember, you’re allowed to deeply care about your work and your success, and also have seasons without a five-step plan. Sometimes the clearest next step appears the moment you give yourself permission to stop demanding one.Thank you so much for tuning in. I can’t wait to connect with you on the next episode of Be More Lobster.
