The beginning of any big goal feels exciting—full of energy, vision, and optimism. The finish line carries its own reward and celebration. But what about the space in between? The “messy middle” is where momentum fades, progress feels invisible, and self-doubt creeps in.
In this episode of Joyfully Unstoppable, Becky Hamm, leadership coach and founder of Women Lead Well, unpacks why the middle of the journey feels so draining—and how you can keep moving forward with clarity, resilience, and confidence. You’ll learn:
⇨ Why feeling stuck in the middle is normal (and not a sign of failure)
⇨ How to reconnect with your “why” when motivation dips
⇨ The power of celebrating invisible progress and micro-wins
⇨ Why rest, support, and perspective are essential leadership tools
If you’ve ever wondered whether to quit because progress feels too slow, this conversation will remind you that the middle isn’t the end—it’s the refining ground where real growth happens.
