The Messy Middle: Growth can't happen without going through it

Growth and transformation are not linear.

I recently got a new tattoo representing a caterpillar's change to a butterfly. The tat reminded me of the transformation I've made since leaving BigLaw.

But just as a caterpillar can't become a butterfly without going through the messy chrysalis stage, I couldn't make the transformation in my life without going through a similar stage, what I call the messy middle.

Yet, the thing I didn't realise, and that always hits me square in the face when I think all is good, is that the growth never stops, which means at some point, you're gonna find yourself in the messy middle again.

And it's this, the obstacles, roadblocks, and general discomfort of growth. that stops so many in their tracks, that stops them from continuing the pursuit of what they want.


In this episode, I talk about my experiences of the messy middle and why you shouldn't let this stage of growth stop you from moving forwards.
