Ep 25: The truth about feeling stuck with Rick Watson
“Sometimes the hardest part of getting unstuck is admitting you're stuck in the first place.”
In this solo episode, I explore the very real, very human experience of feeling stuck. Whether it’s in work, relationships, creativity, or just within yourself, this one’s for the moments where nothing’s terribly wrong… but nothing’s really moving either. I share my own current experience of feeling stuck, unpack what might be going on beneath the surface, and introduce a simple framework for change: Awareness, Acceptance, Support, and Choice.
This isn’t a polished self-help pep talk. It’s an honest reflection on the quiet, messy middle—and the slow, real-life work of getting unstuck.
