What happens when your job ends, but the grief keeps going?

In this episode of In the Meantime, we talk about job transitions, identity, and the quiet unraveling that happens when your title, paycheck, and purpose all disappear at once.

Through this week's Porch Talk letter, "In Grief," we hear from someone who saw the layoff coming but still felt the sting: grieving income, stability, and the version of herself that once found worth in work.

Join us on the porch as we talk about the emotional spiral after job loss, the guilt of rest, and the power of redefining success on your own terms.

In the meantime, you are not unemployed; you are rebuilding. Let your rest be part of the work.

Reflection Prompt: What would it look like to trust yourself again in the meantime?

Episode 4: Matters of the Heart (Part 3) — When Love Isn't Enough

Sometimes the hardest thing isn't leaving, it's admitting that love alone isn't enough to stay.

In this episode of In the Meantime, the hosts dive into that complicated space between staying and letting go. Through this week's Porch Talk letter, "Still In It," we hear from a woman who's still in the relationship but knows something has shifted. Together, they unpack what it means to love a "good person" and still feel unfulfilled, the guilt that comes with wanting peace, and how to honor endings without shame.

They also briefly touch on intimacy and connection — how physical closeness, or the lack thereof, can reveal deeper truths about emotional distance.

If you've ever stayed out of habit, hope, or fear, this one's for you.

In this episode of In the Meantime, we're talking about what comes after love ends: the ache, the silence, and the slow work of putting yourself back together.

Through this week's Porch Talk letter, "Picking Up the Pieces," we hear from a woman navigating life six months after a breakup. She's honest about the back-and-forth of blocking and unblocking, writing texts she'll never send, and trying to find herself again after loving someone who forgot how to love her back.

Together, we sit with the grief that comes when "us" becomes "me," and the beauty that can still grow in the ruins. We talk about heartbreak as a form of becoming, the kind that hurts, but also clears the soil for something truer to take root.

And as always, we'll leave you with a little truth to carry in the meantime.
