Perhaps you’re ending a relationship or are in a new one, perhaps you’re coming to terms with a life changing diagnosis, preparing for motherhood, or starting a new career… You might find your sense of self is shifting and things suddenly feel uncertain and overwhelming.

It’s the messy, murky unknown we encounter when we’ve left behind what’s familiar and are on the precipice of something new. Navigating times of transition can be an uncomfortable and confusing experience. Yet times of transition are also rites of passage that hold enormous potential for growth and self-discovery.Join us as we explore the messiness and transformational potential of transitions big and small.We chat about:How Indigo came to choose “transition” as the topic for her doctorate and why this topic is close to our heartsTransitions as an invitation to learn to be with discomfort and “not knowing”Navigating the transition to private practice as therapists Transitional places as sacred spaces Finding practices that support and hold you in times of transition Learning to slow down and be open to what is emerging How times of transition can invite encounters with SoulNavigating grief and loss in times of transition … and so much more!Resources Cacao Recipe: Click HERE and scroll to the bottom of the page :-) Heart Connection Exercise: Listen HERE Music: 'Lutruwita'~ performed by DENNIThank you for listening.

“Motherhood is the true hero’s journey―which is to say that it can be as harrowing as it is joyful, and enlightening as it is exhausting. For Jungian psychoanalyst Lisa Marchiano, this journey is not just an adventure of diaper bags and parent-teacher conferences, but one of intense self-discovery.”Drawing on Jungian analysis, fairy tales, myths, folklore, client case studies and personal stories, each chapter takes us on an inner journey of self-discovery that is sure to change the way you feel about your own mothering journey.We invite you to settle down with a cup of tea and your journal as we take a deep dive into the journey of descent and initiation that is motherhood. For each book club episode we’ll be exploring a chapter from Lisa Marchiano’s deeply compassionate and insightful book Motherhood: Facing and Finding yourself.We’d like to express our deep gratitude to Lisa Marchiano for allowing us to explore her book in this format. Connect with us:mothersatmidnight@gmail.comCheck out our Patreon page
