In this episode of 'Changing the Channel,' I engage with Suzanne Campi, a professional speaker and certified coach specializing in life transitions. The discussion delves into the complexities of change, framed through William Bridges' concept of the 'messy middle,' an inevitable phase of disruption and adjustment. Suzanne shares personal anecdotes about dealing with loss and the unique ways people cope with significant life changes like retirement, career shifts, and personal upheavals. They explore the importance of systems thinking, spirituality, and self-reflection in navigating transitions. Suzanne emphasizes the necessity of feeling emotions rather than suppressing them and discusses how retirees can find new purpose and leave a meaningful legacy. The episode concludes with valuable insights on building a community and embracing one's greatness while moving forward.
