What happens when we stand at the threshold of transformation, no longer who we once were but not yet who we're becoming? Dr. BethAnne Kapansky Wright guides us through this sacred liminal space, sharing powerful passages from her book "Transformations of the Sun" that illuminate the courage required to embrace change.

Key talking points include:

• Reading from the poem "In Between" about no longer being the person you used to be while not yet becoming who you're stepping into
• Personal story of leaving Alaska for Kauai and the emotional challenge of following soul guidance others couldn't understand
• Exploration of "the wild unknown" - that spiritual wilderness where we must learn to trust our internal compass
• Discussion of how initial certainty in decision-making often gives way to doubt when transformation becomes uncomfortable
• Reflections on how our souls rejoice in the struggle even when our human minds resist change
• Importance of having small anchors during change while still surrendering to the deeper process
The true gift of this episode lies in Dr. BethAnn's gentle reminder that transformation necessarily involves discomfort. When we follow a soul calling, we often experience initial certainty that later gives way to doubt and questioning. Yet it's precisely in this grappling that we discover unexpected strengths and access deeper wisdom.

As she beautifully expresses through her poem "Submergence," we must allow ourselves to unravel before we can "knit ourselves back into new shapes and hue." The invitation is clear: can we trust our internal compass when external validation fails? Can we surrender to the "river beneath the river" and allow our soul's alchemy to unfold at its own perfect pace? Join Dr. BethAnn in this intimate exploration of what it truly means to trust the process of becoming who we're meant to be.
