Ep. 105 | Why the Messy Middle Isn't the End of Your Story
Podcast:The Daily Ascent,Molly Carmel,What You're Craving Published On: Fri Mar 27 2026 Description: In today's episode, I'm talking about the phone call I had with a friend of mine who told me she was "grieving the end of her career." And why I gently pushed back — because what she was describing wasn't the end. It was a messy middle. And our brains are actually wired to prefer bad certainty over good uncertainty, which is why we'd rather call something dead than sit in the not-knowing. Brené Brown reminds us: "The middle is messy, but it's also where the magic happens. You can't skip day two." Question to carry into your day: What are you calling "over" that might just be unfinished? Want to chat about working together? Me too!
