About this episode

Jelena Holodkova discusses how to navigate the in-between phase of life and shares insights from a live IFS session.

Today I'm coming to you with a conversation I had with Jelena Holodkova about how to actually move forward when you're stuck in the in-between phase. Jelena is an IFS practitioner and breathwork teacher who works with people stuck in the messy middle, the in-between of an old life that's dissolved and a new one not yet formed.
