In this episode, Susanne talks to regular podcast guests Susan and David about the concept of liminality or the space between. We talk about:

• The concept of transition, moving between two different states and the messy bit in the middle
• Our discomfort with silence and space but how we all need it to grow and learn
• Noticing when we start to fill this space with the wrong sort of activity such as doom scrolling and what to do about that
