Listen Again: Big Change. Now What?

About this episode

Martha Beck explores the disorienting experience of major life changes and guides listeners through her Change Cycle methodology.

In this special “Listen Again” episode of The Gathering Room, I explore the disorienting, identity-dissolving place we enter after major life changes...what I call “Square One” in my Change Cycle methodology. I walk you through all four stages of the Change Cycle, answer listener questions about navigating change, and lead a calming meditation to help you surrender the wheel and trust what comes next. If you’re in Square One and want to get through it with more grace and ease, this episode is for you.
