You Don’t Need the Whole Plan: Learning to Trust Yourself in the In-Between When You Know Something Is Changing but You Don’t Know What Comes Next

Send us Fan Mail What happens when you know something in your life is changing—but you don’t know exactly what comes next? For high-functioning women who are accustomed to planning, solving problems, making decisions, and figuring things out, uncertainty can feel like failure. But what if you’re not lost? What if you’re simply in between? In this episode of The Healing Poetic Podcast, I’m talking about those seasons when the old no longer completely fits, but the new hasn’t fully revealed itself yet. Maybe you’re questioning your career. Your relationships. Where you live. How you do business. Who gets access to you. The pace of your life. Or maybe you can’t even name what’s changing—you just know you can’t continue doing everything exactly the way you’ve always done it. And you don’t need to have the entire plan today. Sometimes clarity doesn’t arrive as one big revelation. Sometimes it develops slowly through repeated thoughts, desires, discomfort, intuition, journaling, observation, and finally having enough quiet to hear yourself. We’re talking about the difference between uncertainty and being lost, intuition and urgency, planning and control—and why self-trust doesn’t mean believing you’ll never make another wrong decision. Self-trust is knowing that whatever happens, you trust yourself to meet yourself there. Grab your journal for this one, because I’m asking you one of the most important questions we can ask during a season of transition: What do I already know—even if I don’t know what I’m going to do about it yet? You don't need the whole plan. Maybe you just need the next honest step. 🎧 Listen to The Healing Poetic Podcast and, if you’re ready to take these conversations deeper, join my exclusive subscriber community, where we explore self-trust, grief, relationships, boundaries, emotional maturity, identity, alignment—and how to actually LIVE from everything healing has taught us.
