The Messy Middle of Reinvention: When Your Life Still Works—but No Longer Feels Right

In this episode of Surfing Your Edge, Kristine Goad sits down with award-winning author, coach, and entrepreneur Jennifer J. Britton to explore reinvention in a rapidly changing world. Together, they discuss navigating the messy middle of change and knowing when it's time to shed what no longer fits who you're becoming. Jennifer invites us to focus on the pull rather than the push - reconnecting with what brings us joy and trusting where it may lead, even when the path ahead isn't clear.

The Shift Beneath the Words:

Instead of forcing change, Jennifer encourages reconnecting with your vision, noticing what brings you joy and makes you feel alive, and trusting what is pulling you forward - even when you can’t see exactly where it will lead.
