  SPEAKER_00: Hello and good morning.
• 0:04
  SPEAKER_00: This is Living and Learning with Andrea McMillan Humphrey.
• 0:10
  SPEAKER_00: Welcome.
• 0:12
  This is a space for reflection,
• 0:16
  for noticing,
• 0:17
  and for all who are still becoming.
• 0:22
  SPEAKER_00: This is episode 13.
• 0:25
  SPEAKER_00: When you begin to trust what you're becoming.
• 0:32
  SPEAKER_00: Now,
• 0:33
  SPEAKER_00: after beginning again,
• 0:36
  SPEAKER_00: living differently,
• 0:38
  SPEAKER_00: the natural human response is,
• 0:42
  SPEAKER_00: can I trust this or will I fall back?
• 0:48
  SPEAKER_00: Let's think about that a little bit.
• 0:52
  When something begins to change within us,
• 0:57
  there is often a moment that follows that
• 1:01
  SPEAKER_00: Not doubt exactly, but a kind of hesitation, a quiet wondering.
• 1:11
  SPEAKER_00: Will this last?
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: Because we've been here before.
• 1:18
  We felt something shift only to find ourselves returning to
• 1:24
  familiar patterns.
• 1:28
  SPEAKER_00: So when something begins to feel different,
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_00: when we respond in new ways,
• 1:35
  SPEAKER_00: it can feel unfamiliar.
• 1:39
  SPEAKER_00: And unfamiliar can feel uncertain.
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_00: But not everything unfamiliar is untrustworthy.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: Sometimes it's simply new.
• 1:58
  When you begin to live differently,
• 2:00
  you are not creating something artificial.
• 2:05
  SPEAKER_00: You are allowing something true to be expressed.
• 2:13
  SPEAKER_00: And so we must build trust gently.
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_00: And trust doesn't arrive all at once.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: It does build quietly over time.
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_00: Like in the moment you pause instead of react.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: In the moment you choose differently without forcing it.
• 2:42
  SPEAKER_00: In the moment something feels steady.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_00: These are not accidents.
• 2:49
  SPEAKER_00: They are signs.
• 2:54
  SPEAKER_00: You've seen clearly.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_00: You've begun to live differently.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_00: And now, something deeper begins to form.
• 3:07
  SPEAKER_00: Not uncertainty, but trust.
• 3:15
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you for listening.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_00: Wherever you are,
• 3:18
  may you meet this moment with a little more awareness and a
• 3:22
  little more kindness
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_00: because we are all in our own way still becoming.
• 3:32
