About this listen

 In this episode, I dive into the concept of “the messy middle” — the often uncomfortable stage after something changes in life. Inspired by Robin Sharma’s quote, “Change is hard at first, messy in the middle, and gorgeous at the end,” I talk about how this messy space shows up in all areas of life — from your work to relationships to health. I may have a scratchy voice (thanks to a cold!), but I’m here, showing up consistently, because I value our time together. I offer practical tips on how to navigate the messy middle — from building routines that anchor you, to visualizing the beautiful end that keeps you moving forward. My hope is to help you fill your calm and confident toolbox, so you’re better equipped for any transition life throws your way. “Look for what is constant, to create sameness, to embrace routine when life feels messy, to tidy up the parts of your day that you can so the messy parts don't make you so undone.” - Trina

Key Points:

  • The messy middle is a universal part of change—messy, emotional, and necessary for growth.
  • Establishing a routine creates familiarity and stability when life feels chaotic.
  • Envisioning a beautiful ending keeps us hopeful and motivated during tough transitions.
  • These tools apply across all life areas—work, health, relationships, and personal development.
  • The goal is to help you build a calm and confident toolbox to thrive through change.
