What happens when your heart has already made the decision to leave, but your body and circumstances haven’t caught up yet? In this episode, Jennifer reflects on the uncomfortable (and necessary) space of limbo — that in-between stage where you’re not who you were, but not yet who you’re becoming. She explores the lessons of waiting, surrender, and seeing her life from a new perspective — much like the Hanged Man card in Tarot. If you’re standing in your own in-between, knowing change is coming but not yet ready to leap, this one’s for you.
