32. Floating in the Messy Middle
In last episode of Season 3, I’m actually combining two seasons: The Season of Beginnings and The Season of Finishing. The reason I mashed these two together is because I’ve noticed that in the pandemic, beginnings and endings have been a fluid, permeable experience. The lines aren’t as defined, and in order to get from the beginning to the end of a project, it requires a lot of time floating in the messy middle, which is mostly what we’ll be talking about today.
Highlights
How beginnings and endings invite us to honor transitions
Curiosity as a way to manage self-doubt
Why you might feel tired after a writing session
Finding comfort in the convergence of seasons
