Transitions, by their nature, involve ambiguity and disorientation. It's important to recognize that this zone is a natural part of the process of growth and change. In this episode we break down the nature of the being in a transitional/liminal space, embracing it as an identity, and navigating it through small and tectonic changes.
The liminal space is a transitional or in-between state where you’re in a place of vagueness or uncertainty. It’s a place of being ‘in-between’. In architecture, it’s often a passageway. What a perfect metaphor. You’re neither in the room you were before nor arrived at the one where you’re heading.
You’re neither here nor there. You are becoming. You have not yet become.”
We often don’t like it as it feels unsettling and disorienting because we don’t know what to expect.
